So I just went to NAPA and ordered the entire tie rod setup from a 97 ZJ V8 Model to put on my 01XJ Sport. I would like to add the drag link and pitman arm from the same V8 Model year but I am unsure if they will fit in with my XJ the right way(I value the 1inch pitman arm drop from the ZJ). I would like to buy stock moog(or whatever) parts from napa and I'm not looking to break the bank on this. I have seen posts for the Tie rod everywhere but none involving replacing the Tie Rod Setup/Drag Link/Pitman Arm in conjunction with each other. Please help! Thanks guys.

I have a 4.5 RE Super Flex lift installed with 33x12.5's in my backseat waiting to go on after this is done.

The drag link is exactly the same as the one on your ZJ and that's why you won't find any write ups about them. The tie rod is a little stronger but will hang down almost an inch lower than your stock XJ tie rod. And the pitman arm is a direct bolt on and gives an inch drop. Keep in mind when you use a drop pitman arm you need to have a track bar bracket that is lower as well so that the track bar and drag link are parallel.
