I've got one from AJ(AJ's Offroad Armor) Beefy as hell and couldn't beat the price! AJ makes some solid stuff, don't know if he's caught up with his orders since his surgery though.

Look at this thread. I found it at the bottom of the page. I have no idea which is better, cause they all look the same.
BTW..I'm not a newbie any more!!!

Hey Shannon, I used a Rusty's out at shredder. My Draglink got all bent up before the tierod did, very stout. A tierod is so simple that It doesn't really matter about which brands unless you're going for something like an alumiflex. Get the cheapest DOM one you can find.

Oh, but I have heard the the bigdaddy ones are 1.5 OD and that much stronger.

just get a piece of small thick angle steel and weld it to the tie-rod. simple, cheap, effective.

Currie's HD tie rod and drag link are nearly indestructable. I have been running theirs for over a year now, and no problems. Tough as hell!!! but not so tough that your knuckles will break before the tierod bends.

I like my ZJ tie rod. It is beefy and the ends are beefier.

I run the BigDaddy tie rod. It IS stout, and I doubt it would EVER bend. Unfortunately, I think the knuckles would break first.

I also run the Big Daddy tie rod. Yes, the ends will probably give before the tie rod even sweats.
