A common issue faced by truck models that have upgraded high-torque engines, lift kits, and oversized tires is that the factory steering linkage and tie rods prove to be inadequate thus the steering system undergoes greater strains. BD Diesel's comprehensive Steering Upgrade Kit offers a comprehensive solution for a vehicle's worn-out steering. Not only does this kit aim to improve durability, longevity, and reliability, it also saves you money from potentially expensive repairs when the issue isn't confronted. It features a forged I-Beam center link that is about 30% sturdier than stock thus reducing flex and establishing a resilient base for tie rod attachment.

The tie rods are appropriately thicker and feature larger inner ball joints for decreased wear and efficiency in withstanding double the amount of force compared to OEM. Longer and sturdier through-bolt designed sway bar end links are utilized to accommodate larger tie rods while polyurethane bushings integrate an OEM-style blueprint for better articulation and resilience.

This upgrade kit is engineered to retain factory geometry to ensure precise steering and to allow OEM replacement components to be integrated without any geometry sacrifice or modification. Other upgrade kits in the market would alter the steering geometry, which results in drivability being compromised for straight-line strength in races. This can also put the vehicle at risk of bump steer where it becomes hard to control on uneven roads. Since this BD Diesel kit does not modify steering geometry, you won't have to worry about decreased drivability or bump steer.

What sets BD Diesel Performance from other brands is that it is dedicated to providing regular and enthusiast diesel vehicle owners with competitive performance parts in both quality and price. The brand started in 1972 when Valley Fuel Injection Ltd. started offering services to the public. Nowadays, Valley Fuel and BD Diesel Performance operate as one and direct over eight specialty divisions that serve specific vehicle applications: Fuel Injection Calibration Department, Exhaust Brake Manufacturing, Electronic Circuit Design and Assembly, Transmission and Torque Converter Design and Remanufacturing, Turbocharger Design, Installation, and Research and Development. All of these departments are housed in a 65,000 square foot high-tech facility manned by specialists and highly-trained individuals to ensure the manufacturing process is a seamless one. Once BD Diesel Performance got its big break in the market after releasing the first exhaust brake for the then-flourishing pickup truck craze, the brand rode the wave of momentum and released a barrage of turbo, fuel, transmission, exhaust, and electronic solutions to give customers a wide range of options to choose from.
