Baer rear bump steer kit?
I’m installing a Baer rear bump steer kit since I couldn’t source the factory rear ball joints (from what I understand they’re no longer made, and the few I found were extremely expensive).
My question is mainly about setup.
As I understand it, the kit works by using washers/spacers to raise or lower the pivot point to counter rear bump steer. I’m at stock ride height, and I honestly don’t have the experience (or desire) to pull the leaf spring and fully cycle the suspension with a bump steer gauge if I can avoid it.
Has anyone here installed the Baer kit at stock ride height and can share:
Thanks in advance.

Has anyone here installed the Baer kit at stock ride height and can share:
- How many washers/spacers you started with
- Any baseline setup that worked well
- Whether you adjusted further after driving or alignment
Thanks in advance.
