Default Who makes a good tie rod?

Did some hard wheeling this weekend and bent, I should say staightened my tie rod out. It is bad enough it hits the front dif when turning about half of the turning radius. So my question is who makes a good replacement? I have the Rock Krawler 3.5" lift with adj arms and front and rear track bars.

Default Can't use these with stock or semi modified lifts

I was told that my 2" lift could not use these unless I added wheel spaces to my stock 2008 Rubicon wheels. Is this true and why?

I have the Rock Krawler, but thought they only made 1 tie rod. I see 3 different Rock Krawler tie rods listed here.
