Steer Smarts XD Drag Link & Tie Rod Installation

[@rcsskier]

It's worth mentioning that you are using the JK version of the Falcon stabilizer as the JL connects to the stock axel location and cannot be used on aftermarket track bars. Also, the Steer Smarts track bar is 1-5/8" which is important when ordering the stabilizer.

Thank you this is what I needed to know and couldn't find anywhere on Northridge or Teraflex web sites.

[@dl9955]

Just wanted to say thanks for all your videos. All your doing is costing me money!!! Teraflex CT3 Apline 3.5" lift, Falcon SP2 3.1 and that was just for starters. Still adding to our JL build with your videos. My wife loves it all, her Jeep and my $$$$. LOL She just thinks I'm doing it for her. 😉 Thanks again, now I need that steering stabilizer you just put on.

I have the Steersmarts Yeti XD HD drag link flip, Adjustable Track bar, an Tie rod bar installed on my 09 JKU. Need to get them installed on 19 JL.

[@MaxQ2989]

Noticed you had a strap attached to the track bar mount to maintain spacing/distance: why did you NOT mention this before re-mounting the steering stabilizer? Good vid but show it all please.

[@MindisJurenas]

Just instated SteerSmarts YetiXD TieRod, DragLink, TrackBar and their steering stabilizer on my JLU. Sooo much beefier compared to stock parts and crawled amazing in URE

[@Ihavetopoop718]

What are the red caps and rubber gaskets you left on the table during the install?

[@shawnshawn4991]

Just installed this tie rod 1/8” in ( developed a Death wobble) was reading a jeep thread said to adjust to 1/8” toed out. Worked a lot better. 2011 jk 2 door sport 3” lift 17” wheels 35x12.50.

Steer Smarts recommends .5° total tow out

[@taraaaron1242]

You will regret that teraflex bar. They keep having issues. Enter to go with the whole kit from steersmarts

[@northridgenation]

What issues have you had?

[@josealferez6376]

Correct, I'm having issues with mine. There's a lot of noise and play when moving the steering wheel.

[@northridgenation]

@@josealferez6376 Whats moving? Can you post up a short vid?

[@harryallen457]

The Steer Smarts Trackbar won’t clear an ARB Diff cover.

[@timflaherty2731]

If you had to pick one to fix the "slop" in the JL steering, would you replace the Drag Link or the Tie Rod? Either way, the Sector Shaft Brace is recommended right?

[@northridgenation]

We would pick the one that is the most worn. The sector shaft brace kit is a great addition, especially if you have the aluminum steering box. If you have the steel steering box, we would replace the tie rod and drag link first.

[@ShaneSellsRealEstate]

Did you get the new mopar steel steering gear box?

[@davidbowles6070]

Do you guys carry the Teraflex trackbar bolt that you used in this installation video? If so what’s the part number please?

[@northridgenation]

We normally use the Fox stabilizer bolt, unfortunately we are currently out. We do have more on the way: www.northridge4x4.com/part/track-bar-brackets/803-02-028-fox-racing-track-bar-bolt We do have some of the Synergy track bar bolts in stock: www.northridge4x4.com/part/track-bar-brackets/8806-01-synergy-manufacturing-track-bar-stabilizer-mount-stud

[@Ihavetopoop718]

How did you torque the drag link bolt @ the pitman arm?

[@da.vo.6758]

this is exactly what I just came to this video to look up!

[@Ihavetopoop718]

@@da.vo.6758 crows foot on your torque wrench is about the only way. Otherwise just get it tight

[@MrNewtoGuitar]

Good video but could have done without the annoying music.

[@leethompson7049]

The link in the description for the steering stabilizer is for the stock configuration. Is the model number that you used in the video the one for the JK model number for 1-5/8” tie rod? Part # 01-02-22-110-158

[@northridgenation]

Yes, that's the one! www.northridge4x4.com/part/stabilizers/01-02-22-110-158-falcon-nexus-ef-2-2-adjustable-stabilizer-1-5-8-tie-rod

[@SynysterGoose]

Will the steersmart stabilizer tie rod mount work on that falcon?

[@northridgenation]

It would work with this one: www.northridge4x4.com/part/stabilizers/09-02-22-110-000-teraflex-falcon-nexus-ef-2-2-fast-adjust-steering-stabilizer And this one: www.northridge4x4.com/part/stabilizers/09-02-21-110-000-teraflex-falcon-nexus-ef-2-1-steering-stabilizer

[@SynysterGoose]

@@northridgenation awesome. Thank you 🤙🏻

[@dunnoyolo2238]

How does it compare to APEX chassis parts ?

[@weefoochen85]

This can use for rhd jeep wran3 jl?

[@northridgenation]

Yes, just turn it around.

[@stealth00000000]

Where Can I get the falcon track bar bolt? Is it included in the falcon stabilizer box?

[@northridgenation]

We have the Fox stabilizer bolt in stock: www.northridge4x4.com/part/track-bar-brackets/803-02-028-fox-racing-track-bar-bolt

[@anthonyaguila8936]

are those drag link and tie rod pre-grease?

[@northridgenation]

Yes, they come pre-greased.

[@ReConGrpTx]

That drag link you pulled out wasn't a factory drag link.........Just sayin. #Teraflex

[@northridgenation]

The track bar is TeraFlex, the drag link was an OE drag link.

[@ReConGrpTx]

@@northridgenation OOOPSIE.....my bad. I stand corrected :-). I should pay more attention.

[@northridgenation]

@@ReConGrpTx No worries, thanks for watching and commenting.
