Guess it’s time to carry 3.0 spares…I still like them the best out of all the tie rod offerings.

We put my spare Icon on @Dusty at ICON warrantied. Pretty sure @NORCALGXP "used" my spare Hoss 3.0 inner in Moab and pictured above.

I think I might be low on tie rods. This could be a problem. Time to go shopping!

Let’s find some new brands for “testing” and ask for discount codes and affiliate links and make a video on unboxing them!

But should we run stronger ones? The 3.0 rack isn’t indestructible either.

Curious if y’all carry band clamp kits or just use hose clamps on the boots? The boots on my RZR steering have zip ties which are holding up fine.

I'm a hose clamp guy myself. Zip ties as a backup too

I really don’t want water getting all up in that business. I carry clamps for the spare 14 and 16mm tierods that can’t be used on our bronco due to double shear. (But someone else might need one)

This could be inspiration for ford motor co for model year 26. Perhaps it drives better with the front wheels oriented like that. 🤷‍♂️

edit. I don’t think we have much to worry about wrt AI.

I believe this is a funny joke about Internet personalities schilling anything they can to get some kind of legitimacy to their influencing. They don’t know what the product does to other components of the vehicle, just “tie rod no brake anymoar! Use my discount code to get ultimate tierod solution.”

This applies to tierod braces, swaybars, triangulation kits, Chinese auxiliary lighting, etcetera.

I’ve got a set from my Wildtrak that I just had portals and Foutz double shear heim rod ends installed on it. They have 3500 miles on them all on road

"I installed these Icon wheels and they broke my tie rod...do better ICON!" LOL

Seriously though, the wheels look killer on your rig. Get me some pics without it crosseyed and we'll use 'em!
