Stronger/Beefier Inner Tie Rods?
So I've just murdered my third set of genuine Toyota inner tie rods, and it got me wondering if there's a set out there built for lifts, oversize tires, and wheeling the piss out of...anyone know?

well they aren't breaking, but the bushing in the ball & socket joint gets wasted and the wheel has a good 1/2" of play
I want something to eliminate this...

cut the ends off and weld on heim joints like i did i almost got stuck one day and messed up my alignment so much that they had to use a come-a-long in order to pull it back into place and had no problems out of the heim joints if u want pics ill post them but that is the best solution

Are you rock crawling or something? I've still yet to change any front end parts on mine and I try to 'wheel at least once a month in it. Granted I'm not crawling over boulders or anything.

Hey, check out trail-gear.com. I was just looking over there and I ran into some tie rod parts, they looked real tough. You might have to build your own custom setup. Check 'em out, though. And then post pics so everyone can copy off you!
