Fabtech’s Heavy Duty Tie Rod assemblies are designed to resist bending and breakage when running oversized tires. The extra large diameter Tie Rods are forged and are superior in strength to the inherent weak factory tie rods that are known for bending under light off road use. The Fabtech Tie Rod assemblies directly replace factory Tie Rods without modification to the centerlink or steering knuckles for a fast easy installation.
