Chromoly Steel For Added Strength
Making a Tie Rod is easy, but we don't do easy; we chose Normalized 4130 Chromoly 1.625”OD .375” wall tube that can take a beating without breaking (97,200 pound per square inch).
Dog Leg Tie Rod Ends
Boot Sealed - Keeps grease in and dirt out
Anti Flop Feature - Precision range of movement
Massive 1-Ton Rod Ends - Provides additional strength
Maximum Tire/Wheel Clearance - Correct steering radius
Over-sized 1 inch threads- More material at critical area
Over-Sized, Forged, & Heat Treated Housing - Exclusive
Anti Flop Feature
This specially designed rod end has been engineered just for the JL Wrangler steering.
Full side to side range of motion ensures bind free steering when pushing the extremes of your Jeeps travel and articulation, while a limited "front to back" range of movement is built into the rod-end and eliminates the possibility of the offset to allow the tie-rod to "flop".
Drag Link With Greaseable 1-Ton Ends
High misalignment rod ends, double adjustable, 1.375OD wall DOM, and clears aftermarket diff covers.
Dog Leg Drag Link Ends
Anti Flop Feature - Precision range of movement
Massive 1-Ton Rod Ends - Provides additional strength
JL Specific OE Bolt Taper - Secure mount
