So.... way late to the party, and sorry if it has already been covered...
But what is everyone doing for OE equivalent or better tie rods for these Super Dana 60s? My 2011 is just about due. In the past I have going for Raybestos premium sealed units, but from what I can tell they are not making tie rods for this application yet. Im all but done with Moog. Boots just do not seem to last. Proforged??? Mevotech???

I was under the impression they cost about $300+shipping per side. I know RCV has it now. They don't use it for marketing purposes AFAIK. |

I did the artec industries high steer kit. I chose theirs because the design had the most contact and welded surface area of all of them. One thing to note is that you will need a 10" ram to have 45 degree steering with it attached to the tierod. I haven't come across any reports of failures on these anywhere. I had 2 sets of knuckles tested with a pmi gun and these knuckles are cast steel, meaning they are easy to weld, which is probably why you aren't hearing of any failures.

Gave it the 'ol college try:
Front end had been sitting out in the sun for a few hours on a 100 degree day, knuckles stripped and still on axle. Tacked it in place and used MAP torch for localized preheat. Miller 212 MIG with ER70 wire. I think I might have wrapped them in towels afterwords to slow the cooling, but nothing proper like a welders blanket. Now that I'm not a broke college student working outside, I'd probably give them a more proper preheat and cooldown along the lines of a KP60 knuckle just to be thorough though lol.

I cannot spill all the beans, but affordable aftermarket 1550 05+ Superduty 35 & 40 spline chromoly axle shafts are coming at the end of the year. The outers will accept factory vacuum seals and the inners will be available in custom lengths for custom housings like mine.
