Whether you're crawling over boulders, tearing through the dunes, or hitting backcountry trails, this premium upgrade keeps your steering responsive and rock-solid under extreme conditions.
Key Features Benefits
- Heavy-Duty Forged Construction – Built with sturdy forged tie rod ends featuring massive 1.25” threaded shanks, delivering unparalleled strength and impact resistance.
- Premium 7075 Aluminum Build – Machined from 2.0” solid 7075 aluminum, this drag link absorbs and disperses impact energy, preventing bending or steering component damage.
- Self-Correcting Memory Alloy – The 7075 aluminum flexes under impact and returns to its original shape, maintaining optimal steering performance.
- Customizable Finish Options – Choose from 10 distinct powder coat colors or opt for raw aluminum to complement your Jeep’s rugged build.
Precision Steering Maximum Durability
Designed for off-road dominance, the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade reinforces your Gladiator JT’s steering system, providing greater response, improved control, and exceptional durability. Unlike factory steel components, our 7075 aluminum design flexes to absorb impact energy, preventing catastrophic failure and reducing steering fatigue.
Important Notes
For vehicles with less than a 4.5" lift, the under-the-knuckle setup is recommended. If your vehicle is lifted 4.5" or above, we recommend the over-the-knuckle setup which requires relocating your track bar to keep the angles correct and prevent bump steer.
Fitment Wheel Requirements
- Compatible with 17” wheels featuring 4.75” backspacing or less.
- AEV and stock Rubicon wheels require 1.5” wheel spacers.
- Steering stabilizer installation – Recommended in the stock location—a relocation kit may be required for certain setups.
