I purchased the high clearance steering kit from dirt bound off road as well as the Currie steering dampener bracket. The U bolts that came with the bracket are to small to fit around the drag link. Does anyone know what steering dampener bracket kit will fit?
 
"High clearance" steering kits are seldom a good idea, the vast majority of them screw up the steering geometry and cause problems with bump steer. I'd seriously reconsider installing that kit. If that's not an option for you, contact Dirt Bound Off Road and ask them what to use for the steering damper. My general recommendation for a good quality problem-free steering system is Currie's Currectlync kit. Yes it usually costs more but....
 
I'd call them and ask. First time I've ever even heard of this steering kit.

I agree with what Jerry said though. You shouldn't be running a crossover steering setup unless you have full width axles or some very unique use case.

I already have it installed and I had to drill out the knuckles and pitman arm to fit the bigger hardware. I tried calling and emailing dirt bound but I haven’t gotten and reply.
 
Is it the "L" bracket and u-bolts that are too small? If so, should be a fairly simple DIY job, if so inclined.
