: Tie Rods - Has anyone seen these?

Was browsing around socalsupertrucks.com, and I found a few pictures of these fabricated tie rods which look pretty beefy. They are attached via the same loop as Trippins/CalTracks traction bars.

Can anyone shed some light on if these could be better or worse?

Bullet Proof steering has tie rods that are kind of like those with heim joints on both ends I believe. The down side that I heard about the bullet proof steering is that you have to drill out the hole on your spindle for the bolt on the heim joint.

I believe the tie rods in that image are made by CST (the suspension company). If they aren't they look a lot like theirs.

As far as the Bullet Proof tie rods, they didn't require any drilling on my truck...
