1st pull
 
well i hooked my truck to the sled for the first time tonight. and just my luck i pulled 25ft sideways. snapped a tie rod with sleeves. anyone know where i can get the big ones pretty cheap.

b_r_a_d_79 06-20-2009 08:28 AM

did you lower your front end at all

b_r_a_d_79 06-20-2009 11:03 AM

all the way down

2500HeavyDuty 06-20-2009 02:07 PM

yikes, you get any hopping before they let go? sleeves are very strong. got any pics of the rods

b_r_a_d_79 06-20-2009 11:48 PM

no hopping as soon as i let off the brake it snapped right between the sleeve and ball joint on the tire side. sry no pics yet

damn thats some :edit: luck

b_r_a_d_79 06-22-2009 08:41 AM

yea i know so now im just going to go with the big ones now

2500HeavyDuty 06-22-2009 06:21 PM

what kind of sleeves are they?

were they oem tie rods, there probably no need to speend 200+ vs 60 dollars for new tie rods. the big ones look cool and are super strong, but if they do break getting replacement parts isnt as easy
