The Apex KIT385-BLK Heavy Duty ProLock Tie Rod and Drag Link Assembly is built to replace the factory steering system with a significantly stronger setup that delivers improved control, sharper steering response, and greater stability. Designed for 2014-2024 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the legendary 6.7L Cummins, this upgrade helps address the steering weaknesses that often become more noticeable as mileage, larger tires, and demanding workloads accumulate. Furthermore, the oversized steering components are engineered to help combat the excessive movement that can contribute to death wobble while creating a more planted and predictable driving experience. Whether you're towing a heavy trailer, hauling equipment to the jobsite, or simply driving across town, the strengthened design helps maintain confidence in every steering input. The aggressive black aluminum finish adds a clean, performance inspired appearance while delivering the durability required for serious truck use. For owners who want their Ram to feel more precise, more stable, and more enjoyable to drive, this steering system provides an upgrade that can be appreciated from the very first trip down the road. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch4\u003e Precision Locking Technology Meets Heavy Duty Engineering \u003c\/h4\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e The Apex KIT385-BLK combines premium materials and advanced steering technology to create a system designed for long term durability under demanding conditions. Massive 7075-T6 aluminum adjusting sleeves work alongside SAE 1045 forged steel housings and SAE 4140 hot forged chromoly ball studs to provide exceptional strength throughout the steering assembly. At the heart of the design is the patent pending ProLock Link Connect System, which utilizes precision machined keyways and dedicated locking washers to mechanically prevent unwanted rotation between components. Additionally, proprietary jam nuts equipped with integrated set screws help maintain secure adjustments while eliminating the common issue of loosening hardware over time. A greaseable high articulation spherical bushing on the passenger side tie rod improves load distribution while allowing smooth suspension movement through challenging terrain and suspension travel. Serviceability is enhanced through pre threaded zerk housings, greaseable and pre greased internals, and gull winged grease grooves that improve lubricant coverage around critical wear surfaces. Combined with rugged metal to metal bearings, durable CR rubber accordion boots, Grade 8 and Class 10.9 hardware, and USA made adjusting sleeves, this steering kit is engineered to provide dependable performance for years of hard use. \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Fitment: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 RAM 2500\/3500 6.7L Cummins \u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2014-2024 Ram 2500\/3500 6.7L Cummins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufacturer fitment also lists 2014-2026 4WD models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes TR203 OE location damper bracket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot compatible with Rough Country Dual Stabilizer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual stabilizer kits may require modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOversized tie rod ends may affect brackets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum engagement mark must stay hidden.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVisible mark indicates unsafe thread engagement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLifted trucks may require a flip kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjusting sleeves are made in the USA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement tie rod set screws are XP171.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement drag link set screws are XP172.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e  ","brand":"Apex Chassis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54192126198044,"sku":"APSKIT385-BLK","price":1450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2279\/8108\/files\/385-blk_alm_ninja_w_clamp_600x_6cf3e32e-6395-43dd-bceb-2e6f2fdf8e23.webp?v=1781114324","url":"https:\/\/www.alligatorperformance.com\/products\/apex-kit385-blk-heavy-duty-prolock-black-aluminum-tie-rod-and-drag-link-assembly-2014-2024-ram-2500-3500-6-7l-cummins","provider":"Alligator Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
