ICON Vehicle Dynamics 55166 XD Extreme Duty Forged Tie Rod Kit

The ICON Vehicle Dynamics 55166 XD Extreme Duty Tie Rod Kit is a direct-replacement steering upgrade engineered to eliminate the well-known strength limitations of factory tie rods. Built from superior materials with beefier dimensions than stock, this kit is purpose-built for serious off-road use with larger tires and lifted suspensions.

Key Features:

• CNC-Machined 4140 Chromoly Inner Tie Rod: The inner tie rod and ball stud are precision-machined from 4140 chromoly steel with metal-on-metal bearing surfaces, delivering durability that far exceeds the plastic inner races found in factory components
• Oversized Adjustment Threads: Adjustment threads are 12% larger in diameter compared to stock tie rods, providing a significant increase in overall strength at the most common failure point
• Forged Steel Outer Tie Rod: The outer tie rod is forged steel and maintains the same profile as the stock units, ensuring compatibility with factory wheel diameters and offsets as well as most aftermarket wheels
• Greaseable Metal-on-Metal Tie Rod End: The tie rod end features a beefier metal-on-metal joint that is greaseable for extended service life, while maintaining the same operating angle range as OEM tie rod ends
• Bolt-In Design: Designed as a direct replacement into the factory steering location for straightforward installation
• Recommended for Comprehensive Steering Upgrades: Ideal for hardcore off-roaders as part of a complete steering system upgrade strategy
