Default Alternate TRE for Synergy Tie-Rod & Drag-Link?

Hi,

I'm looking to find an alternate Tie Rod End to replace the Synergy 4131-L Tie Rod End that fits into the Synergy Tie-Rod and Drag-Link?

I keep seeing people talk about Moog EX2234L but it seems to be unavailable and the replacement is Moog 2010L. Has anyone confirmed that either of these fit the Synergy Bars?

I have 17" wheels, 4.5" BS and no rubbing with the 4131-L TRE.

guessing its more expensive to ship synergy ends up to his location. Youre fine running any 3/4 ton GM rod end that is 7/8" shank with 18 TPI. Heres an example:
EX2234R tierod end 7/8" x 18tpi Right Hand Thread

you should be able to get them in both left and right hand thread from almost any auto parts store.

The fact that they don't last long and spending $170-200cdn of TRE's every year is pathetic.

I've never heard of anyone having to spend that much on synergy ends or anything bad about them. They are 1 ton ends. Are you bashing the hell out of your jeep in the rocks? No offense that's how some like to do it.

I still dont see why he has to replace them all once a year. If there was a problem with the joint i would be calling Synergy.
