Grand cherokee v8 tie rods

[my86mj]

so i saw this somewhere on a build thread but can't find it again so here it goes. i found a kit that replaced me tie rod ends and all ball joints for pretty cheap. but i wanted to upgrade to a grand cherokee v8 setup. i saw something about they are a single piece steel instead of rolled sheet metal or something like that. can somebody tell me what the benefits are and what years and parts i should be looking for? thanks :wrench:

its stronger all the way around. any GC with a V8 with have it. V6s do not.

 

plus i wouldnt cheap out on tie rod ends or ball joints. both have a important roll but if you like death wobble or loosing control and crashing go for it :D

The V8 ZJ uses the same drag link as MJ/XJ/TJ but uses a much more robust tierod and TRE.

 

You will need the V8 ZJ Tierod, TRE and adjusting sleeve.
