ICON Vehicle Dynamics 55157 XD Forged Extreme Duty Tie Rod Kit

The ICON Vehicle Dynamics XD Forged Tie Rod Kit addresses the well-documented strength limitations of factory steering tie rods, particularly for trucks equipped with larger tires and aggressive off-road use. This extreme duty tie rod kit delivers superior strength and durability through upgraded materials and enhanced construction compared to stock components.

Key Features:

• Inner tie rod and ball stud CNC machined from 4140 chromoly steel with metal-on-metal bearing surfaces that far exceed the durability of factory plastic inner races
• Adjustment threads are 12% larger in diameter than stock tie rods for increased strength where failures commonly occur
• Forged steel outer tie rods maintain the same profile as stock for compatibility with factory and aftermarket wheel diameters and offsets
• Greaseable metal-on-metal tie rod ends provide extended service life while maintaining the same range of operating angle as stock
• Includes inner tie rod boots to protect the steering rack from dirt and debris
• Limited lifetime warranty on manufactured components

This kit is designed for trucks running larger tire and wheel packages that see regular off-road use. The XD Forged Tie Rod Kit maintains factory fitment and steering geometry while providing the strength needed for demanding conditions. Note: Will not fit 5-lug RWD models including X-Runner.
