I have Currie heavy duty steering on my xj. I need new tie rod ends and I was wondering if anyone knows what tie rods from stock vehicles fit if any. I can't justify paying $80 a tie rod from them. Thanks

Tried that with my u joints. Auto zone and O'Reillys couldn't figure out the difference between an axle
u joint with abs and one without. But I may just have to do that at Napa or somewhere.

I picked up an unneeded moog catalog from the part store that contained all the measurements for all light truck rod ends and steering parts. It takes a while with a caliper but all the info in there.

One of the main reasons I stayed with the V-8 GC tie rod setup, 2 yrs. and no issues to date. Last yr. I started running a set of 35"'s on beadlocks part of the time off road only (a set of re-groove's I did) that I bought used.
I don't beat mine hard so no good info there but not the best idea for that I would guess. I will post when/if I have problems.

This steering was on the jeep when I got it so I had no choice. I wheel hard and have no complaints yet. Well my only complaint is the price of the ends. I even hit a huge rut going 20mph in the dark and nothing happened.

Well I looked on curries website and it says their tie rods are 22mmx1.5 so I looked up tie rod ends with those dimensions. Zj v8 tie rods are those dimensions so off to Napa it is. Thanks guys
Please update this thread if you do find some ends that fit.
