I'm replacing my tie rod ends (stock rod) with the moon ends and was wondering if bothe ends are the same part number or different? None of the reviews or part description I can find really say.

 

The passenger side end is crimped on. I haven't seen anyone remove it yet.

 

Ncb I do not think you can remove it. I had the death wobble and had to replace the whole part.

 

Sounds like a great time for an upgrade! I added a Synergy unit and the front end is much tighter!

 

Can the synergy ends fit in the stock tie rod? I was thinking about doing this? Not to jack this thread but was also looking at metal cloaks tie rod and it has 1 ton tie rod ends but apparently doesnt require reaming like the ruff stuff kit? Anybody use it? I am also debating on whether I should just replace the tie rod or the just upgrade the ends if thats actually possible. My tie rod itself has been more than sufficient as far as strength. I would however like to to find a more heavy duty end than the stock ones.

 

The stock passenger side tie rod end is crimped. Not saying it can't be removed, but it was designed to not be removed.

 

ahhhh yes, I forgot about this. Even if you could get it out would it be able to fit ends like the synergy?

 

No.

If you buy the Synergy HD tie rod and their drag link, you would be all set. You would only have to carry 1 spare as they all use the same TRE.

 

It isn't necessary to ream the knuckle for ruff stuffs TRE's. A few people I know, myself included, ran them without reaming and never encountered any issues.
