Today, we’re installing a Steer Smarts drag link and tie rod assembly onto the 2021 Giveaway Wrangler!
The heavy duty drag link and tie rod are designed to improve the stability of your ride and they offer more durability. The parts themselves are powder coated with an external E-Coat for a longer lasting finish and they are both heat treated for greater impact strength.
The install itself is pretty straight forward, taking minimal labor. However, we did add in a Teraflex Steering Stabilizer and also took the time to add in the same Steer Smarts Track Bar Reinforcement Bracket that made its way onto the Gladiator in another video.
If you’re looking to improve your ride after the addition of some bigger tires and a lift kit; this upgrade from Steer Smarts is for you. And if you’d like to know where to get yours, follow the links below!
Or you could ENTER to WIN the 2021 Giveaway Wrangler or 2020 Gladiator and take one of these AWESOME Jeeps home!
Don’t forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE in order to stay up to date with the Giveaway builds or if you’re an accomplished or budding “Driveway Mechanic” watch our DIY videos for more helpful tips and mods for your Jeep!
If you have any questions or comments about the install, our past videos, or any subjects you’d like to see us cover; feel free to comment! We’d love to hear from you!
