XD Tie Rod Kit
The strength limitations of the steering tie rods in the Bronco’s factory configuration have been extensively discussed, particularly among Bronco owners who tackle challenging off-road terrains with larger tires. To address this issue, the ICON XD Forged Tie Rods have been developed, featuring superior materials and sturdier dimensions compared to the stock units. The inner tie rod and ball stud are CNC machined from 4140 chromoly, providing enhanced durability. Unlike the stock Bronco tie rods, the XD Forged Tie Rods have 18mm adjustment threads, which have been identified as the common point of failure in stock tie rods.
The outer tie rod, made of forged steel, retains the same bend as the stock tie rods, allowing compatibility with the Bronco’s factory wheel diameters, offsets, and most aftermarket wheels. The tie rod end is a robust metal-on-metal joint that can be greased for extended service life. It offers the same range of operating angle as the stock tie rod ends. For avid off-roaders seeking the ultimate performance, the ICON XD Forged Tie Rod kit is highly recommended as part of a comprehensive steering system upgrade strategy.
