I keep finding myself at the JCR site looking at the one ton steering upgrade and I don't know if it is the time in my build to pull the trigger on it. Here is what I am rocking currently:

99 XJ
3.5" coils/add-a-leaf kit
2" Budget Boost
Rough Country Shocks for 6" lift
Rough Country Drop Brackets
Skyjacker 16" fixed lower control arms

I just recently replaced my u-joints which were completely destroyed and my ride is so much better already but its still a bit shaky. I have a factory tie rod and I know it is probably a good idea to replace it so I am thinking I should just go with the one ton upgrade, as opposed to just getting a beefier tie rod by itself, especially since they are running their black Friday sale.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!

 

do the grand cherokee up grade

 

the track bar has been upgraded or relocated correct

 

If you don't have a locker in the front, i'd say you could save your money and put it elsewhere. However, the GC or other beefy tie rod/drag link would be a nice addition for peace of mind for pretty cheap.

 

Yeah? Do that over just getting the whole 1 ton upgrade?

It has not. Running stock. I know I need to do that... badly.

See I have thought about getting the GC tie rod but if I am going to spend ~$100 for that why not spend another $175 and get a full upgrade, right?

 

Well, for me, ANOTHER 175 bucks just isn't in the budget for something that's not broke/don't need fixin'.

 

get the grand cher link and use the other 175 to get an adjustable track bar

 

There ya go.

 

from experince avoid the track bars with the tres when buying after market

 

i would get it and not look back.
