HD Steering

Might go with Rockware tie rod/drag link anybody have any experience with these? I know some of you are running Rovertym that's my second choice.. Either way want to get some HD tie rod ends. Any advice out there?

Edit - changed title

i went with Justin and lucky8 stuff.they are alot nicer than the stock stuff for sure.
the best i can do for ya....sorry no pics as of yet for the new parts.it was damp and ugly when i installed them on the rover.

Hmm just looked on their site and didnt find them. Not that I can ever find anything on their site. When I have the $$ I'll call Justin.

I have the QT heavy duty setup on the green truck I never had a problem with them, but I want to get Hard Labor Creek setup with heim joints. My steering angles are pretty severe and my ends are about maxed out.

Are you plan on doing this in the somewhat near future? I need to do my ends soon and would like to make the upgrade while I am at it.

Edit - You're right I think this is that way to go

Yeah thats the setup thats on the green truck. I would definatly go HD tie rods and ends, the factory ones bend pretty easy. The only thing I dont like is that the QT doesnt relocate steering stabilizer, I ended up fabbing up my own mount to relocate it.

I will probably be changing it out soon because the red truck needs new tie rod ends.

The kit Justin sent me to relocate mine doesnt fit my stock tie rod. If it fits this maybe I'll see what kind of deal he can give me. This sure beats buying another steering guard if I dont have to.

Yeah im not sure the outside diameter of the rod but its about 1-1.25".

yeah this is on my list as well. that last rausch trip something took a hit and aint right no more up front. my wheel isnt straight like it was. not to mention my ends were so frozen they were hit with heat till red hot hit with pb and still couldnt get them to budge, the alignment place couldnt get it either.... one thing after another.

TRUE same thing happened to me.. I'm pretty sure it was my damper which is why I went relocation which doesnt fit which means HD rods. Justin said to call him Tuesday I am hoping Christmas comes early this year. Even if it does I am broke until Friday.

I have a lucky8 hd track rod and ends. I smacked my stock on a rock at rausch and bent it good. I don't think justin has his brand on the site, just call him. That's what I did.

Out of curiosity what did you guys pay?

I think I paid around $250 for mine last year.

I believe it was somewhere around $120 for just the track rod

hmm cool thanks. He owed me a little favor since he messed up an order twice. But he is redeeming himself.

Brian is that pricing with TRE?

Yes, that was with the ends

Cool thanks for the help

I was incorrect. It cost me$ 160 shipped

Yea shipping and tax doesnt help the case.. He offered my some old stock QTs for cheap but shipping and tax kinda kills the deal I need to measure my relocation bracket to see what fits.

New QT tie rod and track rod with ends on it's way
