Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm looking into getting some spares too, just in case. The ICON brand ones look solid, although, I'm assuming swapping tie rods is the least you can do, as well as it voiding the warranty, right?

Here you goCan you link the kit?
Yes me lol!Anybody else look at that and think that doesn't look like mild terrain or just me lol
Every time my wife sees dirt next to the road or a pothole she claims its "extreme terrain"...you are right though.Yeah the rock pit isn't "mild terrain" to me lol. Sounds like the OP is a serious wheeler though so its probably mild to him. I'd look at that and say NOPE in a stock Bronco even with my Hoss suspension.
Tie rod replacement kit with the tools you need when out on the trail. Personally I would not update tie rod ends or putting sleeves on because you will just bust your rack which are hot garbage unless you have at least a 3.0 and even then I wouldn't do it. A HOSS 3.0 tie rod is $68.93. The real solution is 74 weld, but you gotta spend the $What is a TrickyDicky kit?
Replacing rack bushings as well?Went ahead and ordered the Icon tie rods. hopefully on factory wheels and tires the rack does its job
Yes did that before the first trip out. hopefully that's enough.Replacing rack bushings as well?
74 weld will be my end game. The Icons will work with the uprgraded 74 Weld rack so figured I would go ahead and get them and do the swap this Spring.Tie rod replacement kit with the tools you need when out on the trail.

Hoss 3 is a good rack. Do the rack bushings. I want to say it has the larger steering motor and the approx size tie rods of the Icons. Only significant upgrade would be the 74 Weld housing swap. if you dont offroad much or not going to bigger wheel/ Tires should be good with what you have.I have a ‘23 Wildtrak with Hoss 3.0. What would you all recommend I consider upgrading so not to run into issues on the trail?
