well, I would like to be able to say that I was hucking 60 foot gap jumps in my tacoma, but no...nothing like that. IFS is safe on pavement, anything else and its a gamble.

Yep, parts of solid axles sure do break too, as well as springs, shackles, shock mounts...
What in the world could you be doing to break tie rods?
Running 38s and hitting every obstacle at full throttle?

Went out to acquire a new product last night. Found one I had not used before. It is a custom, high angle tie rod and connecting sleeve for old junk IFS.
Take a close look at the angles attained here. Quite the fix for long travel front suspensions.
Some of you may be familar with this pose. The last couple times, nothing was broke. This time that was not the case.
In case you want another look.
IFS, blah, blah.
