It’s definitely thick and beefy. Replaced my stock one that was bent. It will fit a non lifted to wrangler. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Heavy Duty Tie Rod! *by C***Y on March 29, 2026* Delivered the next day (after I bent my OEM tie rod) , Heavy duty, and Easy to install. Would buy again! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy Duty! *by P***L on August 30, 2017* This really is a substantial increase in substance. I also really like the flats on each end so I don't need to chew up the finish with a pipe wrench. If I had an option for improvement, I would have liked an extra inch in length. All the hardware is included and of high quality. I'm very pleased with this upgrade. I'm confident that this rod will not fail like I have seen OEM units do. I consider it money well spent. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rough Country Heavy Duty Tie Rod for 97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ | 91-01 XJ - 1143 - MOOG ES3094L Steering Tie Rod End for Jeep Wrangler - MOOG ES3095R Steering Tie Rod End for Jeep Wrangler --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/11458163-heavy-duty-tie-rod-for-97-06-jeep-wrangler-tj](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/11458163-heavy-duty-tie-rod-for-97-06-jeep-wrangler-tj) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
