Apex Chassis 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Kit (Black Aluminum) – JK
FREE delivery
This is a complete replacement tie rod assembly for your 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK.It includes the tie rod (BLK Aluminum) which is also the adjusting sleeve, and left & right forged steel tie rod ends,plus 2 Ninja Lock Washers.

It does not include the steering stabilizer bracket which you will need to choose in the options above based on the steering stabilizer you use.

Wheels and Spacers: If you run AEV or stock Rubicon wheels, you’ll need a 1.5″ spacer. This kits works with a 17″ wheel with a 4.75″ backspacing or less. We recommend the steering stabilizer be fitted in the stock location, or a relocation kit may be required.

FITMENT:This steering kit fits both stock Dana 44 and Dana 30 axles. If your Jeep has been upgraded to a Dana 60 axle, we have modifications that can work with that as well, just contact us to order.

The Special Sauce:

HOUSING

SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing: This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.

CNC Machined Housing: Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.

BALL STUDS

SAE 4140 hot forged Chromoly Ball Studs: For strongest possible metallurgy.

Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs: Provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.

Rolled Threads: Are made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain’t no Ikea furniture!

Step Threads : Allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued. (Installer Choice).

BEARING DESIGN

Rugged Metal to Metal Bearing.

BOOTS

CR Rubber Boots: The most durable material for undercar applications. Resistant to deterioration from road level ozone, oil/gas/engine fluids and extreme heat or cold

Accordion Boot: ideal for high-articulation components, more flexibility means longer life.

FINISH

Rod Ends – Phosphate Finish: Extremely durable. Double coated. Rugged look.

Black Anodized Finish:Understated beauty, long lasting finish.

HARDWARE

Grade 8 – Class 10.9 Hardware: Superior tensile strength.

Castle Nut: Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.

ADJUSTING RODS

2″ 7075-T6 Aluminum Rod:The best aluminum available for this application. Extremely durable but has some flex and memory if you really bash it into something.

LUBRICATION

Pre-threaded Zerk Housing: If you have ever installed a MOOG Ball Joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.

Greaseable: Because it should be.

Pre-Greased: Just in case you forget, we have you covered.

Gull Winged Grease Grooves : Allows for improved lubrication disbursement around the ball stud.

Zerk Fittings : Included for every application.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Tie Rod Ends – Flopper Stoppers Built In: Unlike the poly hockey pucks that most brands use, our heavy duty “Flopper Stoppers” are built into the tie rod end and drag link end bearings, giving you an industry leading 27 degrees of stud swing left and right and only 2 degrees of stud swing forward and aft, keeping your tie rod and drag link from rotating and flopping. The competitor hockey puck style systems also call for the removal of the tie rod end boot, which is there to keep the dirt out and the grease in.

Ninja Washers ™:An APEX exclusive is our Ninja Washer which is a unique method of securing the lock nut to the tube, erasing the need for lightly built adjusting tubes with ugly pinch clamps. And who doesn’t want a ninja on their front end!

Tie Rod End Adjusting Sleeve
FREE delivery

Why Apex?

Our tie rod adjusting sleeve is beefed up to prevent deflection under hard steering inputs in rough road conditions. Adjusting sleeves are a common weak spot, and as the lower quality units wear, they distort the vehicle alignment causing greater tire wear, odd steering feel and lower fuel economy as the front tires ‘fight’ each other.

The Special Sauce:

FINISH
Phosphate Finish: Extremely durable. Double coated. Threads coated as well. Rugged look.
