Default Tie rod, track bar up grade?

Looking for maybe some part numbers for tie rod and track bar upgrade. Tie rod ends ball joints and pitman arm numbers? Want to put good products on the jeep. Any advice is big help thanks

Need more info.
How much lift, if any?

Why do you need a new pitman arm?

Your pitman arm is probably fine. No need to get a drop pitman arm if you're considering it.

For the tie rod an upgrade is one from a v8 zj I'm not sure of the part numbers but its thicker then the stock one and solid. I noticed the difference from my stock one because I'm locked on 33s

If you're looking for quality upgrades, start savin your money. Don't just cheap out and get the most affordable because you'll find yourself replacing things over again

Go with Serious imo. Quality parts. We got the Serious 1 ton steering upgrade for my roommate's MJ project, and as soon as funds allow it, Im getting the same steering for my XJ. Much beefier than the stock parts. Im also planning on the RE adjustable track bar from Serious.
