Fully bolt in 1 Ton Heavy Duty steering upgrade for your JK or JKU!
Includes both tie rod and drag link, and all four 1 Ton sized tie rod ends. This kit is designed to flip your drag link to over the knuckle, or be used with high clearance top mount knuckles like Reid or Rancho.
This is a massive improvement over the thin wall factory steering linkage that is known to bend easily. Our kit uses a beefy 1.5″ carbon steel heavy wall tube… but why steel and not aluminum?
The carbon steel we use has 3X the thread shear strength of similar aluminum kits, and 40% stronger fatigue strength than 7075 “aircraft” aluminum.
What’s All Included?
- Heavy Duty Tie Rod & Drag Link, primed and powder coated Black w/ Silver Vein
- Apex Chassis 1 Ton tie rod ends for tie rod and drag link (4)
- Drag Link Flip Adapter Sleeve (requires reaming/drilling your knuckle to 7/8″)
- All the necessary jam nuts, castle nuts, grease fittings, and cotter pins for install
Why Trail Forged 1 Ton?
- Fits both factory Dana 30 and Rubicon Dana 44 front axles!
- Requires reaming/drilling your knuckle to 7/8″ for the drag link flip. (Reid/Rancho knuckles do not require reaming). For no drill installs, see our bolt in kit.
- True straight links with turnbuckle style adjustment, super easy to align!
- Greasable GM 1 Ton style tie rod ends for massive strength as well as serviceability
- Hex ends on drag link and tie rod for easy adjusting and tightening
- Backed by our Unbreakable Warranty!

Steering Stabilizer Options
Fitment Notes:
- We suggest this steering kit for Jeeps lifted 3.5″ or higher. When flipping the drag link, the trackbar must also be corrected, typically with an OTA bracket at the axle. For full packages with trackbar correction, check out our full Ultimate Steering packages
- Does NOT fit stock 17″ wheels, 4.75″ backspace is the minimum, which means 1.25″ or more spacers on Rubicon or similar wheels.
- OTK (over the knuckle) steering installs typically move the stabilizer to the new axle trackbar bracket.
