Default ZJ Tie rod upgrade, are these the correct parts?

Tie rod with one end already pressed in : DS1312

Tie rod end for other side: ES3096L

Adjusting sleeve: ES2079S

These all seem to be moog part numbers.

And the Tie rod seems to have some bends in it that the stock XJ tie rod does not, Is that correct?

Thanks.

Those are the same numbers I have found. I would also say that I found that some of the prices are better at autozone than amazon. Raybestos makes a set too.

I am finding alot of conflicting information. 93 to 98 ZJ some pics show a tie

rod that has a bend and some are straight? and some show the adjusting

sleeve at the knuckle side and some show it at the drag link side?

Confused....

Thanks for that link.

When I take it to get the alignment done is this mod going to give them a headache? LOL

If you search back here you will find the AutoZone part #'s their top of the line house brand is made by Moog also and I bought all 3 there for under a $100 with a lifetime warranty.


That's one of those thing best bought locally like most auto parts we need the brick and mortar stores badly. The online ones suck the life from our hometown stores what we have left after WalMart.

So the tie rod " end " that goes on the other end of the DS1312 is the same exact one that is used on the draglink to pitman arm? ES3096 ?

I usually try no to purchase online because of hassles with orders, like QT that took over a week to get me springs when I could have drove and got them in one day and I like to see the parts and see where they are made.

Thanks.

I think it is, I was looking at doing both at the same time before my exhaust needed to be replaced.
