Let me know how I can help. We build steering upgrades for 2007+ Tundras, all applications. https://shop-coachbuilder.myshopify.com

 

What coach David said... Beefy and solid!

 

I know this thread is old but want to know if it’s worth it? I changed my suspension like 3-4 times in one year finding the right set up for me. So now I have 3.5” lift, UCA and spacer for sway bar but both joints on my tie rod look blown and when turning like in or out of a spot here a clunk. Truck has 40k

 

It can be a few things and here’s what I’d check first. The tie rod moving sharply or your UCA is loose and moving sharply. You can take the cotter pin out and remove the castle nut, and then remove the tie rod end from the steering knuckle. If it moves easily it’s getting warn out.
For the UCA’s loosen the bolts and then grease the bushings through the zerk fittings (if your UCA’s have them), then re-tighten the bolts to spec.
I’m also in the market for tie rod ends and the ones @Coachbuilder1 has look like they are the best quality in the market.

 

My MOOG tie rod ends just went out and they have less than 10k miles on them. Is there a better upgrade out there?

 

Do it right the first time...I'll be upgrading to these soon. I use several other coachbuilder products since he started offering Tundra stuff.

I'll have to take a look when I get home because the website wont load on my phone. I appreciate the link!

 

They are $$ but for some people it's hard to get their alignment dialed in. There are some cheaper ones out there so research a bit for what works.

 

I'm good with spending the money if that means the other options fail every year. I noticed that on the MOOG, the bottom of the tie rod end starts to seep out grease.
