YETI XD™ JK "No Drill" Top Mount Drag Link

YETI XD™ "No Drill" Top Mount 2½-ton Drag Link

 by Steer Smarts Part number: 78063001

 

***NOTE*** A minimum lift height of 3-3.5" (and correct bump stop) is required for a top-mount drag link. Minimum height requirements will vary by lift manufacturer - please contact us if you are unsure.  Part #79017001 (Track Bar Relocation Bracket) is necessary when flipping your drag link to maintain proper parallel geometry track bar and drag link. 

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

The YETI XD "No Drill" Top Mount Draglink is a complete bolt-on for high steer applications and features our Patent Pending REVERSE TAPER MOUNT design.  The YETI XD "No Drill" is the quickest and easiest draglink flip on the market. Installation takes just minutes and there is no need to modify or alter your stock knuckle. This draglink bolts to the factory tapered knuckle hole and the factory pitman arm hole.

 

Features

YETI XD DRAGLINK ASSEMBLY:
  • Easy bolt-on installation.
  • Engineered for proper clearance to other chassis components to eliminate interferences.
  • Patent Pending "No Drill" Reverse Taper Mount makes for a quick and easy installation without the need of drilling or altering your knuckle.
  • MADE IN THE USA
BALL JOINTS:
  • 30mm 2 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 linkages.

ADJUSTER TUBE: 

  • 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.
  • Internal threads and tube are also e-coated for long term serviceability.

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.

    So I bought this and the tie rod. Had a sloppy steering issue. Contacted customer service about it and they figured out the reason was that my lift came with a drop pitman arm and this doesn’t work well with those. They told me exactly what I needed and now the steering is tight and responsive. Great product as well but the CS is second to none! Thank you for the help.

    Not impressed with customer service

    Have not recieved the drag link yet... when I use the tracking number it says there's no information and every time I've called streetsmarts to find out what has happened, noody answers. I have other products from streetsmarts so I'm sure the draglink itself will be good, but not impressed with customer service etc.

    You placed your order late Friday June 12, 2020 (after hours). We are open M-F 9a - 5p. We have a 2 business day processing time on products. That being said, the order was processed and shipped on Monday June 15th 2020, which technically is the same day it was ordered because the order wasn't received until Monday. If you tried calling us between the time your ordered and Monday morning, no one would have been around to answer your call. This review seems unfair when the above information is provided and we shipped your product the same day the order was received.
