•	Heat treated 52100 steel bearing ball
•	Self sealing and lubricating Kevlar or Teflon lined race,
•	Chromoly heat treaded body with protective corrosion plating,
•	Increased cross sectional thickness for even superior tensile strength,

High Steer Arms
The M&M High Steer Arms are CNC machined from 4140 billet to our own design.  The King Pins are precisionally CNC machined with it's head drilled and tapped. Therefore, once the king pin has been pressed into the bottom of the arm a stud is screwed in tight from the top of the arm.

This design is superior in quality to it's competitors particularly cast designs.  Using billet eliminates the pitfalls of casting for example casting can cause small cavities which only become visible if you were to break the arm or do a cut away of it.  These imperfections lead to weak points in the arms and ultimately failure.  Therefore, running bigger tyres and/or hydro steering will expose the cast’s weak link.  

With our design the tapered stud & the tie-rod end holes are machined to ensure the precision fitting of the studs, cone washers and tie-rod ends.  If the fit is not precise (as possible in cast) the slack/play will lead to the studs and or the tie-rod to shear off and therefore potential disaster.  However, we do recommend with any design to periodically check the studs & tie-rod for play to ensure they are tight.

High Steer Kit
What is our high steer kit:

- Our high steer kits consist of our high steer arms and our custom made draglinks and tie-rods.  The tie-rods & draglinks are made from 1.75inch 4140 chromoly hex bar and drilled & tapped to suit the required rod-end.  This kit will transform the strength, performance and look of your trucks steering.

Why have a high steer kit – performance, design & strength:

 - Note these are in addition to positives noted in the High Steer Arm section (High Steer Arm Link)

 - The high steer kit will lift your venerable tie-rod out of harms way while at the same time improving your draglinks steering geometry for better handling.  When you lift your truck the steering performance suffers because your draglink’s working angle increases plus it becomes too short resulting in bump steer and loss of steering lock respectively. Lifting and making a custom length tie-rod & draglink will eliminate these issues.
Should your tie-rod or draglink take a hit or for that matter have the truck suspended off it you can be assured due to the quality of material and components used your steering will easily hand the punishment. 
 
Conclusion, no more bent tie-rods and poor handling.

Other available Options:

 - For off-road use only & the DIYer pre-cut & drilled hex bar, thread inserts, high quality Endura rod-ends and high misalignment washers and Endura rod-ends joints can be supplied to fabricate your tie-rod & draglink.

Spidertrax Chromoly Sierra Front Axles
Chromoly Front Axles


"I could wheel the lines I wanted without worrying about putting too much stress on the equipment when the wheels were turned. Great going Spidertrax!"Bill Johnston, iZook.com

"During the testing, we did enough bouncing and hopping that, from previous experience we know, would normally snap a stock axle into a gozillion pieces. These axles performed flawlessly and shown no damage in the splines or in the birfield cup upon post-flogging inspection." Eric Bewley, Zukiworld.com 

Sick of breaking Samurai front axle shafts? The all new RCV 26 Spline Chromoly Front Axle Shafts by Spidertrax put an end to an over 2 decade old problem!

Spidertrax started ground up and designed an all new axle shaft utilizing the latest axle shaft technologies we have perfected in competition rock crawling and racing. Key advantages of our design are:

All components are made from 4340 chromoly heat treated material with all heat treatment done after machining, not before.


Inner axle shafts are larger in diameter, upgraded from 22 spline to 26 spline.


Inner axle shafts are fully machined or "necked down". This process is more expensive than simply making a shaft one diameter, but the extra cost is well worth it. By properly machining down the axle shaft, you end up unloading the axle shaft splines and are able to distribute the entire load throughout the shaft. Otherwise, the splines would take the brunt of the load and become the weak link.


Front oil sealing surfaces are kept to OEM specification. This is only possible with an inner axle shaft that is fully machined.


Patented birfield cage design adds vital strength during full turn high torque loads (US Pat # 7,025,684).


Birfield and inner axle shafts come fully greased and assembled just like OEM. There is good reason to do this too besides the obvious "it makes life easier". When a birfield joint is brand new it is critical that all bearing surfaces are properly greased and greasing a birfield joint is most effectively done prior to installing the axle shafts. Therefore, all birfields are greased prior to the installation of the inner axle shafts and then the inner axle shafts are installed and locked in place.


All parts come with a "Limited Lifetime Warranty". You break your first part, Spidertrax will replace it for you hassle free. After your first warranty claim, all parts are covered for life from defects in material and workmanship.

Every part of this kit, from design to manufacturing, is proudly done in the United States of America. Don't be fooled by cheap import imitations selling inferior parts for pennies on the dollar. Save yourself the trouble and buy American.



Pre-Assembled & Pre-Greased  
Necked Down 26 Spline  

Although the overall design of this product is the property of Spidertrax, all manufacturing is done by U.S. based RCV Performance. We take great pride in manufacturing all of our own parts in-house, but RCV Performance was able to offer critical support to make this a great product. First, the patented cage design mentioned above is their property and the added strength gained from using this patent is highly worth it. Second, on a production level, RCV Performance is set up far better than Spidertrax for manufacturing the birfield joint itself. Keeping in mind Spidertrax wanted to design a great product, both made in the U.S and priced right, we chose this partnership to meet these goals.

Please note, to install these front axle shafts into your Samurai, you will need to run 26 spline side gears in your front differential. This can be done by installing OEM rear side gears into the front or by purchasing a locker that already includes 26 spline side gears (see the 1530 Lockright Locker for example).
