    PRODUCT OVERVIEW

    These Tie Rod Assemblies provide virtually 1-ton strength with factory tapered ends, so no modification is required. The tube is 1.25 inch OD SAE steel with .25 inch wall thickness. This is the perfect solution for preventing bent tie rod tubes from off roading with larger tires. Complete kits with dust shields, castle nuts, cotter pins, jamb nuts and zerk fittings.

    5.0 Steering upgrade

    5.0 nice kit

    had to replace all the tie rod ends, so I decided to upgrade. glad I did, this is a great kit. everything is included. install was easy and directions are good. I did have to adjust the steering stops so that the tie rod would not come in contact with the differential and the steering stabilizer. I have not noticed any adverse affect to the turning radius. I have had no problems negotiating the trails I wheel on.

    5.0 Fits like a glove

    Easy fit, quick install and like the performance gains. With a lift and bigger tires, the stock drag link was bending and flexxing. With this kit, and a Sterring Box brace my steering performance has drastically been chaged for the better. thanks for making the order process easy and delivery so quickly.

    4.0 Well built but didn’t workout

    I have a shackle reversal kit on my Yj, spring over and 2.5” lift. The drag link contacts the tie rod, because the drop pitman arm is located too close to center of tie rod

    4.0 Excellent construction, challenging stabilizer fit

    Challenging to find the correct mounting brackets for the steering stabilizer. Perhaps the web site could offer a few options related to tie rod and axle tube diameters.

    Question & Answers

    5 Answered questions

    Q: How do I remove the crimped tie rod ends? Answer this question

    A: The crimped end is not really made to be removed. If you really must do it will take heat and pry bars, not a easy job and not suggested. Modifying will void the warranty.

    Q: On my stock yj tie rods the steering stabilizer connects to the bottom tie tod, where would my steering stabilizer mount in this set up? Answer this question
