Maximum Steering Strength Precision Handling

Take your Jeep Gladiator JT’s steering performance to the next level with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade. Engineered for extreme off-road durability, precise handling, and maximum impact resistance, this tie rod upgrade ensures unwavering control in any terrain. Whether you're rock crawling, navigating deep ruts, or tackling high-speed desert trails, this premium tie rod provides superior strength and reliability under the toughest conditions.

Key Features Benefits

  • Heavy-duty forged construction – Built with forged tie rod ends featuring massive 1.25” threaded shanks, delivering unparalleled strength and longevity.
  • Premium 7075 aluminum build – Machined from 2.0” solid 7075 aluminum, this tie rod absorbs and disperses impact forces, preventing steering component failure and suspension damage.
  • Self-correcting memory alloy – The aluminum’s memory properties allow the tie rod to flex under impact and return to its original shape, maintaining optimal steering performance.
  • Advanced anti-roll technology – Integrated anti-roll capability in the tie rod ends prevents flopping and instability, ensuring tight, precise steering.

Recommended Pairing

Maximize steering durability and responsiveness by pairing with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade (ST-J-JT-DL1).

Precision Engineering Maximum Control

The CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade is designed to outperform and outlast factory steering components. CNC-machined wrench flats allow for easy jam nut adjustments, while friction washers ensure jam nuts stay tight in extreme off-road environments. This tie rod bolts directly into factory locations, providing hassle-free installation and a factory-like fit.

Lifetime Warranty Wearable Parts Guarantee

CORE 4X4 backs this tie rod upgrade with a lifetime warranty—if you permanently bend the tie rod or break a tie rod end, we’ll replace it, no questions asked. Additionally, tie rod ends are covered under our wearable parts guarantee for 18 months, ensuring long-term reliability.

Fitment Wheel Requirements

This tie rod upgrade is compatible with 17” wheels featuring 4.75” backspacing or less. AEV and stock Rubicon wheels require 1.5” wheel spacers for proper clearance. The kit includes a steering stabilizer clamp for use with factory or factory-style stabilizers, though a relocation kit may be required for certain setups.

I want to share a truly positive experience. I ordered a car kit consisting of two packages, but unfortunately one was lost during shipping with UPS. The situation could have become complicated... but it didn't. The company manager was extremely helpful and professional: he personally followed up on the situation and did everything he could to resolve the issue, even sending me the package again without hesitation. It's rare to find such attentive and reliable customer service these days. My sincere congratulations on your professionalism and commitment: that makes all the difference.

These guys are great. You can get them on the phone for support. This important and is not always the case with other custom parts builders. Their control arms are bomb proof and offer plenty of options. You can get real genuine Currie Johnny joints without paying the price for Currie arms.

I've been having trouble with the track bar (on my 2nd gen Dodge) since I installed the 3rd gen Synergy adapter bracket and a 3rd gen stock bar.. oddly, they call it a '3rd gen bracket' and the stock 3rd gen bar doesn't quite fit, making contact with the bracket. I had attempted to clearance the bracket but it was still making contact and I could feel it over large bumps. I reached out to a lot of companies, but Core 4x4 offered to make a custom bar for the application with adjustability and dual Johnny joints. The first pass on it didn't work but they sent me out another passenger side end that made it fit incredibly well. This was all done solely over email/descriptions/pictures/measurements. Bar is super high quality and heavy duty, made in the US by a family owned company and carries a lifetime warranty. The customer service was responsive and superb, and the price was a lot less than I expected.

The folks at Core 4X4 are always wonderful to deal with. They explain your options and never pressure or rush things. The quality of the Core Control Arms is top shelf, especially if your goal is to stop wheel hop. I recommend Core 4x4 without reservation ! ! !

First time buying from Korby @ Core 4x4 and it’s being nothing short of a great experience. I bought the non adjustable Trail kit for my 5th Gen Ram 1500 with a 2” lift. The welds look great, nice powder coat finish and quality bushing. Had some trouble fitting the grease nipples due to the powder coating but a thread tap would fix that. They fit easily and perform great. I felt the improvement straight away. No more wheel hop on hard acceleration which was my main reason for the purchase. I was missing some smaller bushings needed for the 5th Gen and Korby’s custom service was on point, with responsive emails and mailing out the missing parts straight away. Very happy with their products and customer service. Highly recommended company👌🏽

Excellent service, Prompt responses when needing technical assistance, Amazing looking parts that fit excellently. I would recommend them to anyone looking for suspension components. Also very well packaged when we received the shipment, which means no damage from shipping company!! We went with the Crawl Series double adjustable kit and it definitely looks killer on our build!!!
