Default Bent Tie Rod

Morning all. Anyone know by chance what, if any, aftermarket tie rod will fit in a Pro Comp series 98 steel wheel? 15" with 3.75" BS. Was out wheeling this weekend, and I bent mine pretty good. Threw a tow strap on it, attached a winch to the strap, and slowly pulled it 'straight'. Not perfect, by not as bad as it was. No wobble or shimmies on the 45min 65mph ride home. Heres an after pic, after we kinda straightened it out.

Curious too since I've got the same wheels but aluminum.

There was a thread not too long ago about upgrading the TRE's with 15's and the guy had pics where it just cleared the wheel.

From the other thread it looks like you need longer links too otherwise yours could flip over and cause bigger problems. Rubi disco is nice but people still FUBAR their links with it.
