    Thumbs up

    I'd be interested! I've been meening to invest in some of Joe Darlington's Tie-Rod Shieldz, but if I could get a beefier set of Tie-Rods... I could keep the stockers as replacements (just in case).
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    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?

    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.
