The Special Sauce:

HOUSING
  • SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing: This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.
  • CNC Machined Housing: Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.
BALL STUDS
  • SAE 4140 Hot Forged Chromoly Ball Studs: For the strongest possible metallurgy.
  • Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs: Provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.
  • Rolled Threads: Made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain't no Ikea furniture!
  • Step Threads: Allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued (installer choice).
BEARING DESIGN
  • Rugged Metal to Metal Bearing 
BOOTS
  • CR Rubber Boots: The most durable material for undercar applications. Resistant to deterioration from road level ozone, oil/gas/engine fluids and extreme heat or cold.
  • Accordion Boot: Ideal for high-articulation components, more flexibility means longer life.
  • DuroBoot - The Ultimate Off-Road and 4x4 Boot for Extreme-Duty Steering and Suspension
  • Made from solid rubber, DuroBoot replaces traditional flimsy dust covers / boots with a rugged solution built for extreme conditions while still allowing full articulation.
  • • Sleek, low-profile design
    • Won’t blow apart from over-greasing
    • Resists rips and tears from trail hazards
    • Cushions metal-to-metal contact from anti-wobble bearings to reduce noise
HARDWARE
  • Grade 8 - Class 10.9 Hardware: Superior tensile strength.
  • Castle Nut: Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.
LUBRICATION
  • Pre Threaded Zerk Housing: If you have ever installed a MOOG Ball Joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.
  • Greaseable: Because it should be.
  • Pre-Greased: Just in case you forget, we have you covered.
  • Gull Winged Grease Grooves: Allows for improved lubrication disbursement around the ball stud.
  • Zerk Fittings: Included for every application.
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Our patent-pending ProLock Link Connect System™ is engineered to eliminate one of the most common steering system failures: unwanted tie rod rotation and loosening jam nuts.
  • At the core of the system is a machined keyway integrated directly into the threads of our rod ends. This pairs with a precision-cut keyway washer to create a mechanical lock between the tie rod or drag link ends and the adjusting sleeve—effectively preventing any unintended rotation of the connecting rod.
  • To further secure the assembly, we’ve developed a purpose-built jam nut with integrated set screws. This design positively locks everything in place, eliminating the long-standing issue of jam nuts loosening over time.
  • Greaseable, High Articulation Spherical Bushing: For extreme durability our passenger side tie rod is fitted with an oversized greaseable high articulation spherical bushing. This allows for maximum articulation and load disbursement, for better performance, and longer life.
