88whitemanche Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 What's up guys I'm in the mix of buying suspension parts thinking about going stock but durable...do the v8 tie rods fit on the stock tie rods and other ends it may fit?
Zebvance Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Yes but it's not that much of a "up grade" as far as strength.
SnowManche Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 it's stronger than your stock tie rod yes.. and it will fit.
88whitemanche Posted October 10, 2012 Author Posted October 10, 2012 Ok will it fit on the drag link end to? I mean its not going to be much but down south theres not much.of rock climbing mainly mudding but theres alot.of rocks to going into mud holes...does it also involve the tie rod tubing also? To upgrade?
87Warrior Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 The V8 ZJ tie rod will bolt up to your stock drag link. Or you can upgrade to a V8 ZJ drag link as it is stronger as well. To do the tie rod upgrade you will need the following parts: - Tie Rod - Adjusting Sleeve - Tie Rod End These can all be purchased from autoparts stores.
88whitemanche Posted October 11, 2012 Author Posted October 11, 2012 Awesome thanks....so draglink with ends and adjusting sleeve...as well with the tie rod tube and ends from a v8 zj will fit with the comanche
mvusse Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I got the whole shebang, from the pitman arm to the steering knuckles off a V8 ZJ. The main thing is the tie rod being larger diameter AND a solid rod instead of our hollow tube being much stronger. Even if you put it into a rock, it will just bend a bit instead of buckling like the stock one will. Direct bolt-on.
88whitemanche Posted October 12, 2012 Author Posted October 12, 2012 Awesome thanks for the input guys

87Warrior Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Hey 87warrior HOw much did it run you for that whOle set? Tie rod, adjusting sleeve ,and ends? I honestly don't remember. Cost will depend on what brand you go with (i.e. Moog vs the parts store brand).
