Baer "Baer Brakes" is the company that make the bump steer kit. RK Sports just sells it. You could buy it directly from Baer.
Thunder Racing might sell them.

I know of a fella that owns a BAER bump steer kit that might be interested in selling it. It's never been installed.

I'll send him a link to this thread.

The only manufacturer that I know of that makes this kit is BAER. Unfortunately, it did not properly fit my setup (& may have problems with your set-up). RK Sport gave me a full refund.

My car uses Global West Tubular Upper Control Arms and LG Motorsports boxed lower control arms. I have the car lowered 1 inch and set to 1.5 deg negative camber static. With the BAER bump steer kit installed, my toe alignment was undrive-ably toe-out. Dimensions of threading and spherical rod joint provided, had no adjustment room left. My friendly mechanic wasted 2 hours trying to make it work, when I arrived to pick-up the car. Fortunately, I kept the original tie-rod ends in the trunk and they worked fine.
