Has anyone ever seen, or bent a drag link? I'm thinking about upgrading my tie rod from the heavy duty Rough Country to the IronMan4x4Fab tie rod

I'm sure this tie rod will be a hell of an upgrade but I'm concerned that down the road I'll be kicking myself for just not changing out to something that has a straight drag link and heavy duty tie rod.

Keep in mind my daily driver will never be a hard core off road vehicle, I'm just putting things in place to minimize trail damage so I can make it to work Monday morning after a bit of weekend fun.

Oh and it's fun buying cool stuff for the Jeep! :D

Maybe I'm calling it the wrong thing. I'm talking about the bar that goes between the pitman arm and the pass knuckle.

Your calling it the right thing. Upgrade the tie rod, your stock drag link should be fine.

Sorry, I was confused. The drag links seem to hold up. They are much tougher than the tie rods
