how much up and down travel are you all getting from your hysteer/crossover steering draglink?

What do you mean? The drag link on crossover steering shouldn't be limiting wheel travel.

I have a chevy rod end on the top of the pass side knuckle (the axle is waiting to go into my truck soon, d44 SAS) and I lift up on the draglink and it only lifts a few inches maybe 8-10" before it stops. I am worried that it will limit wheel travel when I droop the driverside of the axle.:Help:

Ya if you're using a chevy tie rod end, just get a chevy draglink end instead. They are made a little differently so they have quite a bit more swivel to em:)
