double shear


Single shear


The steering arm on this rack is definitely single shear. I don't believe I've seen a steering arm in double shear. Maybe it seems more significant here because the steering arms I've seen are cast into the spindle. Just a thought.

The only thing I see that would be an issue is ackerman because of the location relationship of the ball joint and the tie rod. A picture from the top looking down would clear that up, but if I were buying a k-member I would still want to see the numbers along with camber, caster, toe, RC height/migration, scrub, etc. I would want this from anybody, RMS, MagnumForce, or any others, and that's only because I'm reworking my front now and am learning all about this fun stuff.
