hahaha nice! all I heard was pow crunch scraaaaaaaaaaaaaape!!!, then him saying,, "ohhhh man, I thought you were going to clear that one"

very fortunate, lip did not get peeled enough to lose fluid

 

nothin you can do to protect the tie rod really tho...right?

 

Not that I have seen. I just see guys with bent ones.

 

o well, thats life

 

nothing that I'm aware of to protect it, but upgrading can be an option. I just got a Currie tie rod, and extremely solid.

 

hmm...possible...maybe after i bend it ill replace it?

 

that's what I did, just ran the stock tie rod until I bent it enough to mess up the alignment. some of us will run something until we brake it, then we will repair it or replace. then some people will tell you the stock tie rod is crap and you HAVE to replace it now or you WILL bend it.

Well, I did bend mine, but only took well over 2 years. it might happen 2 years from now or it might happen the next time you go offroad. don't worry too much about it man, just know that there are heavy duty options out there

 

ya i wont worry about it.
