When upgrading your Wrangler JL or Gladiator JT front axle to a Ultimate Dana 60, it's almost an absolute must to beef up that dinky factory steering! Steer Smarts have you covered with their super easy to install direct bolt-in kit designed specifically for the UD60. This kit includes the YETI XD Tie-rod, Bottom Mount Drag Link, and 1-5/8" Aluminum Steering Stabilizer Bracket. We also recommend adding the YETI XD Front Adjustable track bar as well.
YETI XD TIE ROD + DRAG LINK ASSEMBLIES:
Easy bolt-on installation.
Engineered for proper clearance to other chassis components to eliminate interferences.
MANUFACTURED IN THE USA
BALL JOINTS:
30mm 1-1/2 Ton ball joints are designed specifically for the JL / JT with a UD60 or PR60 (68.5" wide)
Cold headed medium carbon alloy steel ball studs provide incredible impact toughness for extreme duty usage
Induction heat treated ball studs provide ultimate fatigue strength and superior off-road durability
Steel on steel bearings provide exceptional ball joint wear resistance and robustness
High-quality seals ensure ball joints life is long-lived. Our superior seals have been rigorously tested to minimize leakage between grease service intervals which greatly improves our ball joint reliability over our competition
Fully greaseable.
TIE ROD + DRAG LINK ENDS:
Powder coat over E-coat for a long-lasting appearance under harsh conditions
External threads are e-coated for durability and long term serviceability
Forged from medium carbon high hardenability steel and heat-treated for even greater buckling, impact, and fatigue strength
Large 1 ¼ inch rolled threads at tie rod adjuster and draglink ends provide significantly increased strength over the original equipment threads
Unique “Reverse Pin” technology on the passenger-side ends prevents our linkage from unwanted flopping/rocking. This technology is built into the socket unlike the weak external supports on some competitor linkages
ADJUSTER TUBES:
Tie rod and drag link adjusters are manufactured from large diameter ¼ inch thick wall high strength 4130 Chromoly steel tubing for maximum buckling strength
Adjuster clamps assure proper clamp force using conventional tools without the possible risk of loosening like large jam nuts
Designed with right-hand and left-hand threads for quick and easy adjustment when installed on the vehicle
Internal threads and tube are also e-coated for long term serviceability
DESIGNED ONLY FOR WRANGLER JL AND GLADIATOR JT EQUIPPED WITH THE ULTIMATE DANA 60 FRONT AXLE!
