JK Wrangler Dog Leg Tie Rod End, Right Hand Thread - Driver Side

- Anti-Flop Feature
- 1-Ton Rod Ends

The Dog-Leg Rod Ends are engineered with the MetalCloak Anti-Flop feature. The Anti-Flop feature provides a full side-to-side range of motion that ensures bind-free steering when pushing the extremes of your Jeep's travel and articulation, while a limited "front-to-back" range of movement built into the rod end eliminates the possibility of the offset allowing the rod end to "flop".
Note: MetalCloak recommends you have a suspension specialist align your Jeep once MetalCloak suspension is installed.
