Have you looked at your front end yet to see what's causing the problem..Maybe you have some bushings worn out..track bar, stablizer, tie rods, ball joints...I think you should check this stuff out first before you spend alot on the cross over steering unless your actually going to be using the cross over for function purposes..
yeah checked eveything out. just replaced one tie rod end and had a alinement done. it seems to be the angle put on the pitman arm causing the problem. You can also see where the tierod rubs the leafspring on the passenger side if u turn real hard.
If you would like prices or additional info please email or PM me with your needs, info on your truck and zip.

You ALREADY HAVE "crossover steering". Take a look at any Chevy truck older than '87 or a Ford F-250 from anything earlier than '76. That's NOT crossover steering.
honestly runnin anything under a 10" you dont need a crossover. somethin that will help you alot is to put a steering stabilizer on it . you said you have a drop pittman arm on it but how big of one. I have seen people put a 5" on it just cause you can get away with it. I have an 8" on mine and i can go muddin then put it right to the highway and it wont miss a beat or have any problems. somethin I noticed when i lifted mine was that the steering was just alot easier to turn it felt like play but it wasnt. is that your first lifted truck and how long have you had it.
FWIW, if you leave the trac bar in the stock location with crossover steering you are most likely going to have some bumpsteer as the trac bar and drag link are no longer arcing in phase.
I have an 8 lift and have fox shox dual stabilizers and no bump steer but truck tends to float on those 37's with a little play. everything has been aligned so what bushings are u guys talking about? truck is an 06 with only 81,000
