CUSTOMER QUESTIONS
Will this fit on stock drag link?
Simple answer no. These ends are specific to our 7643 Heavy Duty JL/JT Drag Link which is a great upgrade over the factory set up.
What are the thread sizes of this rod end? Is its replacement rod end part number ES2010L? If not, what is the correct replacement rod end for this part number?
Our steering ends use a 1”-18 thread. These are not designed to be a direct replacement for any other application and have the correct taper for the jeep application.
It says the drag link ends are serviceable. Both ends are out on my JK and I need them serviced or do I have to buy new ones.
The ends are serviceable thanks to the built-in grease ports. If excessive wear occurs, replacement of the ends is required. Give us a call at 916-631-8071 if you are having any issues with your product.
