Expanded Tie Rod Fitment List

Important Fitment Details:

  • These tie rods are designed for trucks using a factory-style centerlink. Will not work with aftermarket "drop" centerlinks. 
  • Installation of oversized tie rods may require modification of the sway bar end links. For stock height/leveled trucks, check out the Kryptonite Sway Bar End Links
  • Already have our Death Grip Tie Rods and want to upgrade to our centerlink? Check out the Kryptonite SS Series Centerlink Upgrade Package.

Features:

  • Engineered for Heavy-Duty Use - Designed for the extreme demands of today’s HD trucks, whether stock or lifted.
  • High-Strength Construction - Solid 1-1/4” hexagon steel body resists bending and flexing under load.
  • Premium Materials - Heat-treated chromoly nickel outer studs and all-steel inner ball sockets provide exceptional strength and longevity.
  • Made in the USA - Built with pride and precision in the United States.
  • Incredible Lab-Tested Strength - Kryptonite tie rods withstood 21,000 lbs of pull force—over twice the OEM spec.
  • Bolt-On Compatibility - Fits factory-style center link; compatible with future centerlink upgrades.
  • Black Powder Coat Finish - Comes standard with black laser-engraved finish.

Description:

Kryptonite’s Death Grip Tie Rod Kit is built for reliability under real-world abuse—heavy towing, off-roading, or simply daily driving with confidence. Whether you’re running a stock suspension or a lifted setup, these tie rods provide an unmatched level of strength and durability.

Tested to hold over 21,000 lbs of pulling force, these are far stronger than factory or even most aftermarket options. The forged chromoly studs and bulletproof ball sockets are built to outlast and outperform. Left and right-hand jam nuts make alignment simple and secure. And with black powder coating and laser engraving, they look as good as they perform.

This tie rod kit is fully compatible with stock centerlinks and can be upgraded later with the Kryptonite SS Series Centerlink Upgrade Package for even more steering precision.

Includes:

  • 2 x Kryptonite Inner Tie Rod Ends 10KXDI78
  • 2 x Kryptonite Outer Tie Rod Ends 10KL78
  • 2 x Kryptonite Tie Rod Bodies
