All the boots were torn off the ends, all the hardware was loose in the box. I sent it back and Im awaiting a new set.
I hope these last longer than the Rubicon Express drag link that I had to keep replacing ends on.

I will do pics tomorrow. The Currie tie rod was not screwed up from shipment. With both installed, the steering is tight, responsive and bumps don't go thru the steering wheel.

Where did you get the 3500 tie rod ends from?

yes the currie drag link can be flipped... the end and the end of the housing are both threaded.. so u unscrew the end, flip the bar becasue the "bend" needs to point foward, and screw it in the other side.
the other part of the "flip" kit u need is some sort of track bar bracket to raise the track bar.
for the person who wont be buying the currie, buck lisa'a idea is AWESOME!!!!![Clap](https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/images/smilies/clap2.gif)
but u CANNOT flip a stock left hand drive drag link.
IMO all the stock ends are crap.
Here's a.pic of both installed..
