Iron Rock Off Road Tie Rod
Anybody here running a tie rod by Iron Rock Off Road?
LINK They focus mainly on parts for the uni-body Jeeps and was wondering if anyone is running their parts on your TJ. I figure $66 for a solid tie rod isn't a bad deal. And they don't use proprietary rod ends like Currie, so if I do manage to break one, I can easily find one locally.

While beefy indeed, I'd be afraid it'd break more TRE's instead of bending like a regular hollow one. True it's easy enough to replace tre's, but I'd imagine out on the trail I'd rather have the tr bend a little and still be able to get me out of whatever situation I'm in than break the tre itself. just my

I used a heavy duty tie rod from another source and it worked great. It did not bend when I hit a protruding rock on the side of the trail. In fact the HD tie rod was so strong it bent my drag link. I upgraded to a Currie HD steering system. The tie rod AND the drag link are bullet proof.
