Default Tie rod options for stock wheels.

Morning guys.
Looking at replacing my tie rod as she has been bent a few too many times.

All of my arms etc are synergy which I love, but the synergy bar won't fit with factory wheels due to the one ton joints.

Can anyone recommend a heavy duty tie rod which is compatible with factory wheels?

Or has anyone successfully fitted the synergy tie rod with factory wheels?

Looks like the teraflex fits but the design doesn't really excite me.

Cheers.

Teraflex is only one that'll work with stock offset wheels get the drag link at same time never worry about them again

My mistake I run the currie currectlync tierod on mine its bombproof when I got mine 6 months ago it was the only one that works with stock rim and my +25 AEV pintlers the Balljoints are huge and its about 1/2 inch thicker than stock one. I got it from Victor at SBR awesome service and quick freight from WA to SA

There are a few options, none of them cheap.

Teraflex as already mentioned,
Currie (uses RareParts system),
Metalcloak
and Steermart's Yeti system for JK.

Only the first two are currently available through Australian vendors.

Thanks Guys.

I did see the Currie at SBR, but the price was huge. But I guess being Currie it would be set and forget.

I'll check the other suggestions out!

synergy tie rod and drag link works with stock 17 inch wheels and 1 inch spacers, (use hub centric ones) Works for me till I get new procomps.

Not keen on the whole spacer idea.
Im not worried about strength, there is no issue there. Just the legality.

I keep 33s on factory wheels so I can stay legal and not have to worry as much if I get into a serious accident, as I can't afford to engineer the her yet.

Once I can afford engineering etc. I'll step up to 35s on aftermarket rims and then it won't be an issue, but sadly thats a while off yet.
