I was wondering if any body has any reviews on the kennedy tie rod sleeves. I want to add some strength to my steering. I already have the cognito braces.

I've got both. I've launched under 8psi boost without breaking anything, even with my bars cranked up a bit.

Some say that braces and sleeves are redundant, but I like the peace of mind of having it all done.

Those are SD's Sleeves that Kennedy sells they're probably more important to have them then the braces.

The sleeves are highly recommended for any thing you do with these trucks. I've seen the stock tie rods get bent from smacking a curb hard the wrong way, pulling a trailer out of a muddy field, hitting a parking block on a bad angle. You name it. It is a good piece of mind to make sure you always are able to drive away or back home after unexpected happening (or deliberate as in 4X4 launch or truck pull). I have some 2X4 trucks running around with them for the extra insurance they provide.
