    Alumi-Flex

    Anyone seen this stuff in person? I've been looking around at steering options and have decided to go with a simple crossover steering as opposed to a high-steer setup, so protecting the tie-rod is a must. Sleeving it thick as hell is an option, but I came across this today and thought it was a viable alternative, if not for the bling factor.

    I don't want any part of my steering to be elastic, but that is just me.
