Default No steering stops??
I got a complete used kit off CL, Dream Bars, coils, 4 shocks for dirt cheap. Put it in , went for a shake down, tires rub bad(225 17's on mustang wheels), find that the rim hits the bottom shock bolt. After some looking, I find there are no stops on the DJM bars! Guess I'll weld a couple adjustable stops on. Must be early bars?

mustang wheels require spacers on stock suspension

Got 1" spacers on it. Wheels/tires look great.
So...anybody sell DJM stuff? There must be a solution to this....you NEED steering stops.

The steering gear should have built in stops.

It does but, if you've ever looked....there is a triangular stop built into the stock bars. Nothing there on the dream bars and the stop on the spindle doesn't come close to hitting anything.

Well, DJM says they work with stock wheels....I don't see how. I welded in some triangular stops....pretty easy.
