Tie Rod

[stevage]

I was out running my truck yesterday and landed off a jump wrong and the tie rod(if thats what you call it) came off.I went to put it back on and there was way to much play.Is there any better ones i get. Here are some pics.Sorry i don't have the pic of the jump that cause the carnage.

I'm sure they make better/stronger ones. One of the tips I have seen is to put a small washer on them to keep them from popping off. I have had a few pop off and I just snap back on.

Be aware that if you put washer or stronger rod ends on, something else may break instead.

Later,

One thing I'd like to add....
Take a bearing with you to the LHS if you get the hubs from a store and check the fit the bearing has in all the bearing locations.

this will save you the trouble of having to return the hubs for workmanship issues. The review and it's replies, tells more about that.
