Default Tie Rod Ends

Could anyone help me with the correct parts or part numbers for tie rod ends? I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly which ones I need because of the 47 different ones online.

I need the TRE for the drag-link at the pitman arm as well as the other end of the drag-link. I also need the one end for a ZJ V8 tie rod. I'd prefer to get them at a local parts store, but Rock Auto is much cheaper. Just unsure which to buy.

1999, 4.0, AW4, 4x4.

Thanks for any help.

3096L is the tie rod end that connects to the pitman arm ( i replaced this last month)

the other end of the drag link is fixed to the drag link, so you have to buy the long drag link just to get the TRE

AutoZone has 2 lines the cheaper ones are very cheap their better line is still in their box but are Moog brand for the Mid 90's V-8 GC's the long tie rod, short rod and the sleeve, 3 pcs. under $100 out the door for the good ones.


You need to find out the brand on the Rock Auto ones there are a ton of the cheap China imports all over with all kinds of names, with them you get what you pay for.

Thanks for the input.

I'm gonna grab a Junkyard drag link and replace the one end on it. I know both ends on mine are bad. And get a new TRE for my ZJ tie rod.
