Description
Have you installed a 1 ton front differential and are looking for a Tie Rod? In most instances that we are aware of – this is your answer! If you have custom built a 1 ton front differential, if you have purchased a 1 ton differential and are unhappy with the tie rod supplied with it or if you have installed knuckles on your stock differential that have a 1 ton taper this aesthetically beautiful option may be the tie rod solution you are looking for!
RockJock's completely bolt-on Modular Extreme Tie Rod is commonly referred to as our 2 1/2 ton tie rod. Features include a massive 1 5/8 in. diameter billet 7075-T6 aluminum bar with our tapered RockNut ends machined into the bar and RJ logos engraved at both ends, 1 1/4 in. RH/LH thread RockNuts, 1 1/4 in. RH/LH thread forged steel rod ends and removable rod end cartridges that may be used in standard or reversed orientation.
The RockNuts featured on this tie rod feature collet design as opposed to traditional jamming with a nut. The steel nut with a female taper tightens against an intersecting male taper machined onto the control arm. When tight, the components are bound together and are bound onto the threads of the rod ends with incredible force that is not attainable via a traditional jam nut. The right hand and left hand threads for tie rod length adjustments after installation without having to remove either end of the tie rod from the vehicle.
The removable cartridges in the rod ends offer many advantages.
Most commonly in applications that require this heavy of a steering system, you’ll be looking to install Ram Assist steering. Should you be intending to stay with a steering stabilizer shock, we also offer heavy duty U-bolt style steering stabilizer shock mounting bracket to allow you to easily reinstall a factory stabilizer shock or an upgraded shock such Rancho RS5000 stabilizer shock. Note: this shock will not be a bolt-on solution, at the differential end, in all applications.
This easy to install kit is completely bolt-on and requires no modifications or machining to any part of the vehicle! Finish is clear anodizing on the bar, black zinc coating on the RockNuts and the ends are painted black so the unit is ready for install right out of the box!
