EVO source wording says: Aluminum Tie Rod Bars are tapped so that the rotation of the bar will adjust length making alignment adjustments simple and effective.. Verify axle width, drag link/tie rod ends, stabilizer/ram-assist mounts, wheel clearance, alignment, and whether this is a full steering kit or a service/replacement component.

EVO HD Draglink 7075 Aluminum JL/JT Factory Wide Axle

Vendor fitment: 2018-2026 JL Wrangler, JT Gladiator. Steering fitment from the vendor source. Confirm final options and fitment on the vendor page before purchase.

The ultimate complete steering linkages for strength and improved steering feel. This kit replaces the stock draglink with huge 2" 7075 Aluminum bar and oversized tie rod ends. Aluminum Tie Rod Bars are tapped so that the rotation of the bar will adjust length making alignment adjustments simple and effective. Draglink bar made from 2" 7075-T6 Aluminum Bar Draglink can be installed as standard under mount or top mount for draglink flipped applications. (flip brackets and adaptor required for flip, not included with this kit) JL/JT Wide axle vehicles are most common, to be sure, it is best to measure your current tie rod before ordering. If it is over 60" center stud to center stud, you have wide axle and this kit is appropriate. The oversize large Tie Rod Ends in the EVO HD steering kit require wheels with backspacing of 4.75" or smaller. Less backspacing wheels/factory will require.
