Tie Rod Ends

[Hummie2]

HummerLV...

Its one of my creations. I used Rubberduck tierods and machined some adapters to fit them to the ram which I special ordered from Performance Off-road Systems. The cylinder is a 2 1/2" bore X 6 1/2" stroke balanced unit with induction hardened 1 1/2" rods, should be nearly impossible to bend them. The pitman arm is a chromemoly piece from Borgenson. I fabricated the crossmember from 1 3/4" x .250 wall DOM mechanical tube and it uses existing frame holes to mount it up. I can return everything back to stock fairly easy should I ever decide to. I've got about a month of free time fitting, fabricating, welding, machining everything and about $1500 in parts in the job. Still have a little work left to do to get everything dialed in right, but it looks like it holds some promise. I will let you know more when I get some more road miles and a few off-road trips on it.
