In most instances that we are aware of – this is your answer! If you have custom built a 1 ton front differential, if you have purchased a 1 ton differential and are unhappy with the tie rod supplied with it or if you have installed knuckles on your stock differential that have a 1 ton taper this aesthetically beautiful option may be the tie rod solution you are looking for!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRockJock's completely bolt-on Modular Extreme Tie Rod is commonly referred to as our 2 1\/2 ton tie rod. Features include a massive 1 5\/8 in. diameter billet 7075-T6 aluminum bar with our tapered RockNut ends machined into the bar and RJ logos engraved at both ends, 1 1\/4 in. RH\/LH thread RockNuts, 1 1\/4 in. RH\/LH thread forged steel rod ends and removable rod end cartridges that may be used in standard or reversed orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RockNuts featured on this tie rod feature collet design as opposed to traditional jamming with a nut. The steel nut with a female taper tightens against an intersecting male taper machined onto the control arm. When tight, the components are bound together and are bound onto the threads of the rod ends with incredible force that is not attainable via a traditional jam nut. The right hand and left hand threads for tie rod length adjustments after installation without having to remove either end of the tie rod from the vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTie Rod Bar = 1 5\/8 in. dia. x 39.69 in. long 7075-T6 aluminum\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTie Rod End Forgings = 1 1\/4 in.-12 RH\/LH threads, forged steel\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRod End Cartridges = 1 ton taper on the pin, 1 3\/4 in.-12 threads on the O.D. and\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9\/16 in.-18 threads on the pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustment Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed - 57.89 in.
