Replacement Chevy Tie Rods
 ✖  |
Hearing customers complain about replacing tie rods on Chevy off-road trucks started the guys at SoCal Super Trucks thinking. With the help of a local machine shop, they developed a heavy-duty steering system that stands up to rough off-road use.
"We saw a lot of premature failure due to bent tie rods," explains Casey Coughlin. "We worked with the machine shop to develop tie rods made with more durable materials. They make them, and we distribute them."
Retailing at $549, the chrome tie rods aren't cheap. Set one alongside a stock rubber-lined tie rod, though, and you can see that the noticeably heavier-duty rods are worth the investment.
An added benefit of the new tie rod is an adjusting sleeve to set toe.
"We have steering systems for all 1999 and newer Chevy 1500 series, and all 2-WD and 4-WD 2001-2006 Chevy 2500 and Chevy 3500 series trucks," says Coughlin.
