This is a complete replacement drag link assembly for your 2018-2021 Jeep Wrangler JL or 2019-2021 Gladiator JT. It includes the drag link (Polished Aluminum) which is also the adjusting sleeve, and left & right forged steel drag link ends, plus 2 Ninja Lock Washers.

Fitment: This steering kit fits stock Dana 44 and Dana 30 axles in the 'flipped', top mount location. If you need an undermount kit (typically less than 4.5 inches of lift), please see KIT128. If your Jeep has been upgraded to a Dana 60 axle, we have modifications that can work with that as well, just contact us to order.

What It Fits:

• Jeep Wrangler JL (2018-2022), Jeep Gladiator JT (2019-2022), both Dana30 and Dana44 front axles.

The Special Sauce:
Housing

• SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing: This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.
• CNC Machined Housing: Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.

Ball Studs

• SAE 4140 hot forged Chromoly Ball Studs: For strongest possible metallurgy.
• Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs: Provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.
• Rolled Threads: Are made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain't no Ikea furniture!
• Step Threads: Allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued. (Installer Choice).

Bearing Design

• Rugged Metal to Metal Bearing.

Boots

• CR Rubber Boots: The most durable material for undercar applications. Resistant to deterioration from road level ozone, oil/gas/engine fluids and extreme heat or cold
• Accordion Boot: ideal for high-articulation components, more flexibility means longer life.

Finish

• Rod Ends - Phosphate Finish: Extremely durable. Double coated. Rugged look.
• Adjusting Sleeves - E-Coat Finish:Durable e-coat treatment

Hardware

• Grade 8 - Class 10.9 Hardware: Superior tensile strength.
• Castle Nut: Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.

Adjusting Rods

• 2 inch 7075-T6 Aluminum Rod:The best aluminum available for this application. Extremely durable but has some flex and memory if you really bash it into something.

Lubrication

• Pre-threaded Zerk Housing: If you have ever installed a MOOG Ball Joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.
• Greaseable: Because it should be.
• Pre-Greased: Just in case you forget, we have you covered.
• Gull Winged Grease Grooves : Allows for improved lubrication disbursement around the ball stud.
• Zerk Fittings : Included for every application.
