squeak from drag link connection to tie rod
Installed tera flex 2.5" lift with shocks, front and rear jks adjustable tracbars, currie upper control arms. Have 315/70/17 Mickey MT's. Have put about 1000miles on the lift. The stearing wheel is centered.
I am getting a squeak that seems to be comming from my passanger side front wheel well area. It happens in motion and is fairly constant. I shake my right front wheel back and forth and can recreate the sound grabbing the top of the tire. If I shake my tie rod it also makes the sound. Does it sound like the joint connecting the tie rod and drag link. It looks none serviceable so I can't grease it.
Wondering if I installed something wrong, if something needs to be adjusted or replaced. thanks for the help.

The drag link and the tie rod are connected via the steering knuckle on the passenger side and you are right the stock units do not have Zerk fittings.
Unless the tie rod adjuster is loose from alignment, its more likely that something else is causing the noise like the new trackbar on the axle mount or the new control arm, all of which are in the same general area.
Also, is your 2.5" lift coil or BB? If its a coil lift, are the coil properly seated?

if it is a BB it may be the spacer squeaking, nothing a little grease in between the spacer and rubber cant fix, the easiest way to track down squeaks IMO is to grease one component at a time until you find the squeak to go away, or grease it all and when squeak returns repeat.
