From my experience no. I haven't heard of anyone with the Rancho kit getting bumpsteer. Eventually I do want to upgrade to heavier tie rods just for the peace of mind.

It'd be interesting to see a picture of the tie rod angles of pickups that are using Rancho steering knuckles.

Thanks! You just sold me on Raptor wheels. Do you know if they fit without the adapters?

Thanks! That's a 6" right? I'm thinking with a 4" it wouldn't be quite so bad

That's the 4in. I like the Rancho because it's more of a 5in lift.
