Reviews for Rugged Ridge 18050.82 Heavy Duty Tie Rod Kit for 93-06 Jeep Cherokee XJ, Grand Cherokee ZJ, Wrangler TJ & Unlimited
Did not like crown steering kit i have
Heavy Duty and reviews were good
Haven't installed this yet but looking forward to upgrading the stock steering
working good so far.
Simple installation and great performance so far. Easily accessible Grease fittings make regular maintenance a breeze.
So far so good, the steering feels alot tighter than before. I'm no mechanic and was able to put it in myself. All I need now is a alignment and I'm good to go.
A major upgrade from the stock system. It fixed my death wobble. The 4 brackets that keep the tubes from spinning has the holes for the bolt too low making it difficult to put it on. I had to hammer it in place. Not impossible but very unprofessional. But overall it's a solid tie rod and it seems to be very heavy duty.
Just got it but missing 2 pins and set of zerk fittings . Probably didnt help that box was tore open at 1 end on delivery. Havent installed yet will update then. Looks stronger then the crown hd kit i got about 2 years ago much happier that this time i can just change tie rod end vs whole tierod link.
Good for moderate trail riding with maybe 31” max
Tie rod got bent first time I took it on the trail 33”
Install was super easy and the rods were sturdy, but the adjustment clamps were extremely weak. When torqued to the amount in the instructions they bent so much I had to hammer them off of the rod. I originally bought this kit as an upgrade to my stock steering linkage that had worn out, but this was immediately just as unpredictable as the worn out stock linkage
