I'm looking to upgrade since mine is worn out. I was going to buy Rustys. Any thoughts or recommendations on this?

How much did the ZJ rod set you back?Handlebars said:You could do the V8 ZJ tie rod upgrade while you are at it. Tell the parts guy that you want the inner and outer tie rod ends and adjusting sleeve for a 95 Grand Cherokee with a V8 and you will get something that looks like this:
The tie rod is solid steel as opposed to the hollow tie rod that comes stock on an XJ. Stick with the XJ drag link, the ZJ one doesn't fit.

Incredible Hulk said:WOW! I am surprised to hear you were able to bend it! It seems awful stout! How did you do it? Thats crazy! Good to hea ryou would buy it again though!
