Interested here too. I've got the Sheildz in mine right now, but these would be a LOT easier to align. How about a package deal on the bent links w/ RE joints and tie rods together?

[LiquidVX]

yes! i want those tierods and bent links w/ RE joints. Please inform us of the cost. I want to buy them.

These look great ....but...there was someone (Andy aka. swordy) on this board already making them (nearly identical). the tie rod ends are 60s-70s International 3/4-1 ton. (if that helps) I have part #s availble....

It would be great to be able to get them more readily tho (and for 1st generations Isuzus, too)

I bought a set from him over a yr ago, and they are truely awesome (unbreakable).
I can attest to this with my 36" tires i have broken several STOCK tie rods, and usually when they go, they take out the CV with them.

BTW. I think his were less than $150....


my idea is to flip the outer tie rod end around, (drilling and re-tapering the hole in the knuckle) so the tie rod will be straiter(horizonal) on lifted rigs.

Yes I know Swordy was making some pieces quite similar. I dont know if he is still making them or not, or price or basically anything about em. I'm not trying to step on anyones toes, but I had a number of people asking about these so I decided to do a little R&D. FYI, these will come COMPLETE with all hardware and all 4 TieRod ends. The final price will be $265 for the pair. There is a thread going over on the wire if you're interested in putting down a deposit. If I can get 10 people to commit to a $75 deposit I will do a production run of these. If you're interested in both the TieRods and Links at the same time I may be able to offer you a discount as well.

Heres a link to the deposit thread.

Thanks everyone

yeah, that price sounds about right....I bought mine W/O the tie rod end joints and had to order those locally myself....


I like the wrench-slot designed into them! mine don't have this and it is a bit rough to use a big pipem' wrench for adjustment.

are yours painted?


I wanted to say agian how much STRONGER these are than stock. (and how weak the stock ons are....a small curb at the correct angle will destoy stock ones) :coolg:

Now if i could just get a reaming tool at the right dia/pitch so i can install the outer joint ON TOP istead of under the knuckle .........

I am ready to put down a deposit, but if you dont get at least 10 people to do a production run, what happens to the deposit?
Will you not make them if you don't get 10 people? I want to buy them.
I am still kinda new to forums so if i sound stupid, sorry.
