Kryptonite's SS (stainless steel) package replaces the wear-prone factory components with genuinely stronger, more durable pieces designed to hold up under real-world abuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStainless steel construction resists the corrosion and wear that eventually claims factory steering components, especially in states that salt their roads in the winter. Beyond the material upgrade, Kryptonite's engineering addresses the actual failure points in the factory design rather than just reproducing the OEM part in a different finish - this is a genuine upgrade, not a like-for-like replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMake sure to select the correct drivetrain configuration when ordering - 2WD and 4WD C\/K1500 trucks use different steering linkage geometry, and Kryptonite builds this package specific to each configuration to ensure correct fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation uses factory-style steering linkage mounting points, well within reach of any front-end shop. As always, a proper alignment is recommended once your steering components are replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e GMC C\/K1500 1988-1998.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain options:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2WD or 4WD.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRefreshing your whole steering system?
