Dude, first off my compliments to building a beautiful truck. Love it. I have an ‘83 GMC K2500 with a 10” lift, full hydro PSC steering, 39.5x18x15 BOGGERS mounted on Eaton 15”x12” bead locks, a bone stock 350 small block, and the SM465 manual 4 speed, dana60 front with ARB air locker, GM 14 bolt rear with a spool. Yes I had to do some significant fender trimming both front and rear. But I wanted a lower center of gravity. It’s not my daily driver, but I do average about 2k miles a year.

I had an 84 gmc and added power windows. I tried the factory harness and they were very slow . I had dual optima batteries and a 120 alternator. Anyways I removed the factory window harness , and I ran 2-8 gauge oxygen free cables from Phoenix gold to relays under the dash by my glovebox . I used the factory buttons , and cut off the connectors from the harness and ran 24 gauge from the doors back to the relays . The buttons had no correct going threw them anymore and were only used as triggers for the relay . The guy at the glass shop said I had the fastest windows he had ever seen in a square body lol

I’m sure it’s probably too late by now. But with that build I wouldn’t bother with the crossover steering. You’d be better off with a full PSC hydro steering system mounted on Artec Fab’s hydro front truss steering bracket. The PSC system is about $1500 and the Artec Fab bracket is under $300 And I don’t care what all these online off-road geniuses say about full hydro steering. It is perfectly legal in almost every state. I’m in California, we have some of the stupidest and strictest laws and hydro steering is legal here. My cousin works for the CHP. Just my advice.

You can move axle forward a good amount like I did for clearance.You will also need to move shackel hanger for rear of spring forward also.This may not work with the length of your front driveshaft if its already short.
