BD Diesel 1032150 Steering Upgrade Kit Centerlink, Tie Rods, Pitman & Idler Arm

The BD Diesel 1032150 steering upgrade kit is built to strengthen the steering linkage on heavy-duty Chevrolet/GM trucks. The factory steering linkage and tie rods are a common weak point when high-torque engines, lift kits, and larger tires put more strain on the system than OEM intended. Typical symptoms include loose steering, front wheels toeing in under load in four-wheel drive, and broken tie rods. This kit replaces the key steering components with stronger parts.

What's Included:

• Forged I-beam centerlink
• Tie rods (2)
• Sway bar end links (2)
• Pitman arm (3-spline)
• Idler arm

Key Features:

• Forged I-beam centerlink is 30 percent stronger than OEM, reducing flex and providing a solid base for the tie rods
• Tie rods are 1.5x thicker than OEM, with larger inner ball joints for reduced wear
• Ball joints use sintered bearings for better load holding and longer life
• Greaseable ball joints, pitman arm, and idler arm
• Through-bolt sway bar end links are 1 inch longer than factory to accommodate larger tie rods and leveling kits, and to help prevent damage to tie rod seals/boots
• Polyurethane end link bushings with OEM-style shaping for articulation and durability
• Retains factory steering geometry, so OEM replacement parts drop in without modification

Because the kit does not alter the steering geometry, it avoids the bump steer that can come from other upgrade designs. It is a practical upgrade for worn steering on trucks that are lifted, performance-modified, or used for serious towing.

Install Time:

• 3 hours
