Default TRE Suggestions

Draglinks acting up and thinking of replacing all the other TREs while I'm taking everything apart. Any suggestions? I'd prefer greaseable and I've also heard good things about the MOOG TREs. Don't do much offroading so I'll be keep the stock tie rod.

You might want to look into replacing those tie rod ends a little more. I think only one end comes out, other is factory crimped. Someone else had a thread about trying the same thing , wanted to replace with Moog to.

Interesting, I'll do a bit of digging around the forum to see if I can find that thread. Thanks for the insight.

Yeah remember reading the same thing. Whether you want or not, this might be just the time to upgrade both your tie rod and the ends.

Found it!

I'll be doing as HiTekRedneck suggested and go with this setup as I don't wheel and don't need anything crazy.
