there are multiple ways to do it, i think i know what you are talking about, they have a rear link plate, and screw a tie-rod from the rear knuckle to the link plate. But there is other ways to lock out the rear steering. Like using two little tie rods and screwing them to the axles. Hopefully this made sense, i dont have any pics to post what i mean.:-(

Hey thanks,I have the steering link deal already but I have seen trucks with plates on both sides of the knuckle and bolts all the way thru. I would like to find out if anyone makes them.

looks like a hacksaw, dremel, drill, and about 15-30min should produce something very similar.

very nice idea btw. might have to make a set for my next build.
