anyone used or heard of these? i just order some from my local shop for 35 bucks!

 

[Stewart Leask]

about to order some, let us know how they are!

I don't think they're stainless, so be prepared for rust city. Thats a big part of the advantage of the higher priced sleeves. They're made from stainless so they won't rust onto the tie rods. But for that price, it'd be hard to say no I think.

 

[chopperpilot99]

I've had them for about 4 months, no rust yet. FYI, they won't fit over MOOG tie rods.

No rust because your in Texas They'll probably never have any rust on them down there! Up here where the roads are covered in salt, plain carbon steel will rust in a day or two

Perhaps, but we do have high humidity 70% of the time.

With the right prevention measures taken, here in Texas, steel tie rod stiffeners will work just fine !!

 

[GeorgiaDuramax]

Thats a good price and even if they arent stainless that doesnt matter cuz they aint gonna rust in Georgia

Orange rustOleum is my friend up here in Maine

same thing happens with CIUD sleeves. You can simply machine them out to fit though.

IIRC Moog tie rods are 14.5mm and stock tie rods are 13.7mm

I've had mine for close to a year now. They work great and in the salt hellhole that is the cape may pinnensula they have yet to rust at all

 

[RedBowTies88]

I also had the problem with them nt
or fitting over my moog rods. But a drill press fixed that pretty easily. I think the fact that they're machined to that close of a tolerance to the stock rods says something about the quality

 

[N2BRK]

mine are standing up really well. No rust either in all of this hellish multi-blizzard salt.

If you're that worried, maybe use some lock-tite medium or something to protect the threads???

 

[justinwilliamskx]

mine are good no rust on them and pa winters arent too nice on metal

 

[07bluelbz]

Mine are holding up good and they are have some sort of anodized coating on them so i don"t think rust will be a big issue.

 

[Johnasara]

They are zinc plated. I have had mine for over a year and they have held up well. Especially for the price. They are not quite as long as some of the competition but that has not been an issue with me either. I have done several boosted launches on them and still no problems. I have also hammered it pretty good off road and no issues

 

[Tow Master]

I helped my buddy install them on his truck. Hes happy with them. They went through nearly a whole winter with no problems
