The Apex KIT380-STL Heavy Duty ProLock Tie Rod and Drag Link Assembly is designed to replace weak factory steering components with a significantly stronger solution built for real-world abuse. Oversized tie rod and drag link ends work together with heavy-duty DOM steel construction to help tighten steering response and improve overall vehicle control. Furthermore, this complete replacement assembly is engineered to help combat common front-end issues such as excessive steering play and death wobble that can develop over time. Apex's innovative design eliminates the weak adjusting sleeves found in many factory systems and replaces them with a more robust arrangement that is built to stay secure under demanding conditions. Whether your truck is a daily driver, dedicated tow rig, or weekend workhorse, this upgrade delivers the durability needed to keep your steering feeling solid mile after mile. The result is a more confident driving experience that helps you stay in control when it matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt With Purpose For Demanding Steering Applications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component of the KIT380-STL has been engineered with durability and long-term performance in mind. The assembly utilizes SAE 1045 forged steel housings that are CNC machined for precise bearing fitment, while SAE 4140 hot forged chromoly ball studs provide exceptional strength in critical steering locations. Additionally, the rugged metal-to-metal bearing design is built to withstand harsh operating conditions where lesser components may wear prematurely. Heavy-walled DOM steel tubing forms the core of both the tie rod and drag link, creating a steering system capable of handling the stresses associated with lifted trucks, oversized tires, and heavy-duty use. Serviceability is enhanced through greaseable and pre-greased components, pre-threaded zerk housings, and specialized grease grooves that help distribute lubrication more effectively around moving parts. Apex also incorporates its exclusive ProLock Link Connect System and Ninja Washer technology to help prevent unwanted movement after alignment adjustments are made. Combined with a high-articulation spherical bushing design and premium Grade 8 Class 10.9 hardware, this steering assembly delivers the strength, precision, and reliability that 2003-2013 Ram 2500 and 3500 owners demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Fitment: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 Dodge RAM 2500\/3500\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment Note: Designed For 2003-2013 Dodge Ram 2500\/3500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteering Style Note: Built For T-Style Steering Linkage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003-2008 Note: May Require T-Style Pitman Arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2013 Note: Verify Steering Style Before Ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility Note: Not Rough Country Dual Stabilizer Compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePSC Gearbox Note: Drag Link Will Not Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStabilizer Note: OE Clamp Will Not Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Stabilizer Note: Bracket Modifications May Be Required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation Note: Components Arrive Pre-Greased\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService Note: Greaseable For Long-Term Maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustment Note: Minimum Engagement Mark Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign Note: Replaces Weak Factory Adjusting Sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Apex Chassis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54190565982492,"sku":"APSKIT380-STL","price":1095.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2279\/8108\/files\/Screenshot2026-06-09165535.png?v=1781049380","url":"https:\/\/www.alligatorperformance.com\/products\/apex-kit380-stl-heavy-duty-prolock-dom-steel-tie-rod-drag-link-assembly-2003-2013-dodge-ram-2500-3500","provider":"Alligator Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
