tie rods...

GO HUGE!!! · 07-29-2009, 12:11 AM

I just ordered and installed the new aftermarket tierods that Mike from Prestige makes..They look awesome and are burly..I will put them to the test next weekend in the rocky mtns..People say they are a little pricey, but can you put a price on being stranded with each front tire going diff directions in the middle of nowhere..? i look at them as my insurance policy. They were fairly simple to install..If I snap these, there will be more damage to repair other than the tie rods..Thanks Prestige..

I just took my XTZ to Unisteer. They are going to put there beefed up rack on it. It's called Rackzilla, It has oversized pipe for tie rods and heim joints instead of ball joints.We will see how it works out. They are also putting on there power steering unit. Can't wait to see how it works.

Hey those tie rods you got from Mike will do really well. Mike built my car and have had nothing but good things to say about it. I just got back from Mammoth last week and it worked its tail off up there with no problems. Once I figure out how to post pics here i'll put some on.

Hunterworks has a HD rack that he has posted on his web site that comes with new tie rods, but its confusing because it also says for Rhino? He also has on the electric rack as well. Price seems reasonable.

OMG I just priced a set of beefy tie rods and ends from Prestige Motorsports.

Theyre

$295.00 USD!!

Anyone know of any other aftermarket options? I called my shop for a stock set and apparently Artcic Cat only sells the complete steering rack @ $505 CAD. I find that offensive.

You could also try the sleeves that some of the guys are using to reinforce the tie rods.I think they are 20.00 a set usd.
