"No-Notch" Tie Rod Kit.....

Holy shit! 360 a pair? You can get nice lower control arms for that. There isn't much material there, what's up with the price?

Machining time for the tapered 'bolts' used would be my guess.

Machine time is expensive. The shafts that drop right into your spindle and into your center link are tapered for a tight and exact fit to your spindle and centerlink....unlinke other versions these do not require you to drill out your spindle to install these...they can be installed with basic hand tools.

The parts we use are also thick wall DOM, and heat treated 4140. All the parts and machine time, and the cost of the heims add up. not to mention the powdercoat is included and shipping! These are higher end heim joints, and we offer a good warranty on them also.

it all adds up!

thanks

Well since no one else has I guess I will step in and clarify a few things

A.Both connecting points are factory so this product won't help bumpsteer.

B.Yet again you have put a naked joint under the front of a truck.

C.You have to remove the joint to adjust the tow.My alignment shop would talk shit if I brought them something like that.

In all equality s10's don't have a lot of bumpsteer.Also if you put seals on the joints and made a sleave adjuster for the alignment you might have something.

Grip

Both connecting points are not factory, the spindle has a .950" drop down, which puts the line from spindle to center link back to level, and improves the little bumpsteer that these trucks do have. I didnt feel that s-10s had alot of bumpsteer also.....but that wasnt the feelings of our customers, we got flooded with requests to help remedy that issue.

"Naked Joint"

LOL I love how your so fast to point that out....i really do. Considering that you like to chime in on every product we make lol idk, by maybee it would help if you read the post from begining to end, if you did you would have read this " these arent the exact final design, some small changes have been made since " LOL these kits are available with the "seals-it" rod end seal kits....that wasnt announced yet, because i didnt have pics with them on the heims.....but ill post that just for you! These "seals-it" rod end seals will completely seal out any debris that you may think could get into your heim....some people dont feel they need them for their vehicles, and some do....we offer it as a 3$ option to the kit.

heres a pic for example:

That will put to rest anyones concerns of and kind of debris getting into their heims.



I dont know that to tell you about your alignment shop. But they sound lazy, lol , ours was able to align these without any problems or bitching about it. They auctually said it was kind of refreshing!

i appriceate your input!

P.S:......we allready do have something here

cool idea with the seals. I can definetly see how it would be easier to align then some seized up stock adjusters.

One truck that could REALLY use a kit like this is the I Beam rangers. The size of the notch you need to do on the passenger side of those things is almost scary, especially when you're running 20s. And on the drivers side, the tie rod notch is pretty minimal BUT on a bigger wheel, the rod hits the pitman arm. A set-up like this would solve that issue too. If this were my product, those trucks would probably at the top of my list for new designs...

i wish something like that could help on my '01 f150, but i don't think it could. i used belltech spindles, and they moved the tierod up 2" along with the hub and it really fucked up the geometry. I flipped the tierod end to point up and that helped a ton, but doing so made it sit lower than stock in relation to the lca, so i actually need to go up just a little to make it right... i don't think there's a solution that's safe, and belltech won't even reply to my emails about it. you can bet i'll spend whatever it takes to not use anything belltech in the future!
