Have the updated 'o8 steering linkage but needed to replace one of the ball ends. Went to this Thuren unit instead of stock and am very happy with it. Steering is noticeably tighter and the fabrication was good (as expected). It is heavier duty than stock and I have always preferred Heim joints to ball joints anyways. Thanks again!
I purchased this drag link to replace the heavy duty OEM drag link which has some built in vertical movement. This link is Beefy! I couldn't move the spherical joints by hand as they are very tight! Install was a easy. Keep in mind you loose the ease of steering wheel adjustment without the left/right thread OEM style adjuster.
But this simplifies the assembly as a whole. Lastly the tapered studs are perfect fits for the heim joints and are one piece. This was installed on a 08 quadcab w custom King/Carli 3.0 2" low ride set up.
