STEER SMARTS™ is proud to present our most EXTREME steering linkage “The YETI XD™" Series linkage equipped with our GRIFFIN XD™ Attenuator. We applied our 85 years of steering “lessons learned” to develop the strongest most durable linkage ever built for the Wrangler.

Features

YETI XD DRAGLINK WITH GRIFFIN XD ASSEMBLY:
  • Easy bolt-on installation.
  • Griffin XD Attenuator for the highest level of on-road and off-road stability and performance.
  • Engineered for proper clearance to other chassis components to eliminate interferences.
  • MADE IN THE USA
BALL JOINTS:
  • 30mm 1 1/2 Ton ball joints designed specifically for the JK.
  • Cold headed medium carbon alloy steel ball studs provide incredible impact toughness for extreme duty usage.
  • Induction heat treated ball studs provide ultimate fatigue strength and superior off-road durability.
  • Steel on steel bearings provide exceptional ball joint wear resistance and robustness.
  • High quality seals ensure long ball joint life. Our superior seals have been rigorously tested to minimize leakage between grease service intervals which greatly improves our ball joint reliability over our competition.
  • Fully greaseable.
DRAGLINK ENDS:
  • Powder coat over E-coat for a long lasting appearance under harsh conditions.
  • External threads are e-coated for durability and long term serviceability.
  • Forged from medium carbon high harden-ability steel and heat treated for greater buckling, impact, and fatigue strength.
  • Forged from medium carbon high hardenability steel and heat treated for even greater buckling, impact, and fatigue strength.
  • Large 1 ¼ inch rolled threads at tie rod adjuster and draglink ends provide significantly increased strength over the original equipment threads.
  • Unique “Reverse Pin” technology prevents our linkage from flopping or rocking. This technology is built into the socket unlike the weak external supports on some competitor linkage.
    GRIFFIN XD ATTENUATOR: 
    • Reduces harsh and negative feedback to your steering wheel.
    • Draglink adjuster is manufactured from large diameter ¼ inch thick wall high strength 4130 Chromoly steel tubing for maximum buckling strength.
    • Adjuster clamps assure proper clamp force using conventional tools without the possible risk of loosening like large jam nuts.
    • Designed with right hand and left hand threads for quick and easy adjustment when installed on the vehicle.
    • E-coated for a long lasting appearance under harsh conditions.
    • Internal threads and tube are also e-coated for long term serviceability.
    • Designed for the proper clearance to other chassis components to eliminate interferences.
    • Patented Design.

    *Draglink fits all left hand drive JK Wrangler models 2007 to 2017 including Rubicon and Unlimited.

    Note: A minimum of 17”wheels is recommended. 16" wheels with a maximum 4.5 back spacing might fit but not guaranteed.

    **Jeeps equipped with Rubicon/Anniversary/Front Factory Skid plates will need to slightly modify skid plate for clearance with GriffinXD

    Stock 2009 jk with 33s

    3 weeks in and no issues or complaints. Install was simple and took most of the play out of the steering. Also eliminated most of the wobble I was feeling. Installed the yeti XD tie rod assembly and steering damper a week after the drag link and made a world of difference. No wobbles or shimmies. Steering is smooth. Track bar to come in the near future.

    Happy customer

    I bought Steersmarts trackbar, drag link, and aluminum tie rod. Two of them shipped immediately and the other about a week later. Installation was easy and adjustments for setup are ideal. I have had the parts on the Jeep for 3 weeks. I have not got a chance to test them in the dirt but on the pavement they handle better than stock. FYI. Running 37's with 3.5 inch lift.

    Great Replacement Parts for Front Stock Suspension

    Steer Smart pieces of equipment. I bought the Yeti XD drag link with attenuator, Yeti XD adjustable track bar, Yeti XD Pro series aluminum tie rod with steering stabilizer and mounting bracket. This set has made a tremendous improvement to the ride of my 2017 JK. I interacted several times with Andrew and always found him to be knowledgeable, helpful and quick to respond. These suspension pieces are much beefier than the stock set up. Thanks Steer Smarts for a great product.
