JK Wrangler/Unlimited: HD Chromoly Tie Rod Kit and HD Forged Drag Link Flip Kit
The TeraFlex JK: HD Chromoly Tie Rod Kit and HD Forged Drag Link Flip Kit withstands extreme conditions and abuse that typically causes factory steering components to bend and fail on lifted JK Wrangler/Unlimited models.
“Flipping” the HD Forged Drag Link (50% stiffer than factory) over the Knuckle helps eliminate front-end shimmy and other alignment issues. The axle end joint is flipped 180 degrees so it can be pressed down into the top of the knuckle.
