That is because I did a mistake with front bumper, I thought I can add winch plate later, but no, they are selling now differernt model of Havoc bumper with winch plate. I called Havoc if they can exchange it , but no luck I need to buy a new model, so I will go with JCR soon.

Well, I have a JCR full hard top full rack, which is 62 lbs , ikamper tent is 165lbs, me 182lbs, my wife 148 lbs, kid 95 lbs, second one 25lbs, so math is = 682lbs. Total weight when we are camping all together. So far we slept 10-12 times together on the roof top tent, nothing happened (yet)...
Yes, you have a right point, broken tie rod will not ensure the health of the rack, but man this truck is absorbing money like a sponge , I will upgrade the rack and tails eventually, may be next year
