Bad Axe steering is a fully USA made, heavy duty steering linkage upgrade for any 2003-2012 Ram 2500/3500 truck. A T style steering design, Bad Axe linkage is hand built from massive 1.5" DOM 1080, thick 3/8” wall tube. This steering boasts 4340 Heat treated Chromoly Joints, which are adjustable to prevent slack as the joints wear and fully made in the USA which is something few steering options can claim. The tie rod joints are also gated to prevent linkage flop. This joint design does require proper greasing and tightening as they wear, but the trade off is one of the strongest designs on the market.

This steering is easily aligned as well, with adjustment sleeves just like the factory linkage. Unlike the factory sleeves, these adjusters are so massive in diameter they match a can of soda in scale. 

If you want heavy duty, off road focused steering, this is it. 

03-08 Ram owners converting from Y style steering (see third photo in carousel for comparison) will need to select the option to add a pitman arm. If you have a 4" or taller lift please email us before ordering. 

Please note that this linkage is physically different depending on your truck's height, so select accordingly. If your truck uses a drop pitman arm for a 4" or taller lift, you MUST select that in order to receive the proper steering! Stock to 3" height trucks will use a factory T style pitman arm.

Bad Axe Steering Linkage

Kit fixed the “wandering” of my 08 3500 Mega Cab. I paired it with a new steering box (Redhead), Thuren track bar, and new ball joints. Truck drives the best it ever has. Purchased the truck with 50k and currently has 210k

Bad Axe steering linkage

Steering was feeling a little loose, always back and forth a little. After installing the Bad Axe linkage and a new track bar it feels much better. No longer have that busy feeling, staying in the lane.

What a difference!

I have done numerous upgrades to the front of my 06' Ram (Mopar T-type steering linkage upgrade, CORE leveling, EMF Ball joints, Carli Track Bar, and a Red Head Steering gear) All were great upgrades but after installing this Bad Axe steering linkage, my truck has never felt so solid and confident on crappy roads. Interesting side note is that even braking feels better. Not sure why...
