The black one looks great though.
Even if I am going to rub it on a few rocks.
Here is my old one after a year

Thanks Bubba. Need to space it out a little from all the other upgrades that just went into the jeep. Hopefully I'll catch you in time for the next batch.

I think earlier in the thread that it is very highly recommend to use a taper bit on the knuckles.

For those of you running a Dynatrac PR60 without the high steer conversion and you’re looking for a better tie rod, I have 2 of the 7075 tie rods in stock and they were made specifically for that axle setup. If you’re interested give me a call and I can get you set up.

Got the Tie Rod on last night... Thanks Jerry for responding to my texts at 9:00pm and Speedy for letting me borrow the Reamer....
I reamed the hole slowly until I saw fresh metal all the way through... and 1/8” of thread was left below the top of the knuckle. But there was still a very slight amount of play before tightening. I torqued the nuts to about 63lbs and it seams to be ok....
Bubba, is a little bit of play prior to tightening normal?

Finally some progress[emoji106] . I wouldn't expect it to have no play until you tightened it. The tie rod ends need to get pulled into alignment with the tapered hole, doubt you could line it up perfect by hand.

I usually go until there isn’t any movement, but I’m sure you’re fine. Hope you like it!

I’ll ship it back to you Monday. [emoji481]
Thanks guys... yeah, I’m sure it’s fine... any more and I’m just losing thread.
It looks great Bubba... Today I’m Going to dbl check the alignment, tighten up the Jamb nuts, grease the Zerks, paint mark the nuts and I’m good to go. [emoji481]

I bashed mine on some rocks yesterday. It was great to see it’s still nice and straight afterwards! Great product! [emoji1303]

This tie rod is incredibly sweet! I painted my drag link red and after my last trail I found red paint marks on the tie rod! The best part? TR is straight!
Thanks for a great product!

Exactly! Although the most recent was the roughest, I’ve been on three since install. It’s so nice not to have to pull it and throw it in a press, hoping I can straighten it out like the OE TR!

Thanks again for the tie rod Bubba! Thing looks beefy as hell, and so much easier to align the toe than the factory one. Can’t wait to try it out on some trails [emoji41]
