Took a nice hit to my new Synergy tie rod this weekend:
Didn't bend the tie rod but it bent my drag link and threw my steering wheel off:
Synergy drag link, Safari straps, and Old Man Emu steering stabilizer and relocation bracket all on the way. Stay tuned for my "Go Topless Day" pictures and more aftermarket crap to empty my pockets

So if you've been following along you saw that I bent my drag link and had a crushed steering stabilizer. Today I got my new Synergy drag link and this is just a beefy as the tie rod.
Installed:
Also picked up an OME Steering Stabilizer and relocation bracket from Metalcloak because I had a $100 gift card so it cost me more in shipping than it did for the product.
Here's a picture of what my old one looked like:
Old Man Emu Steering Stabilizer (HATE THE YELLOW) :
Painted the damn thing black, cut the stupid boot off because they just hold water and moisture anyway, mounted the relocation bracket so it is now up and out of the way and installed:
Yes I know I promised "Go Topless Day" pictures and I will get them posted sometime this weekend. Also I will install the Safari Straps soon and give you more pictures!

Lots of poser shots and there are many more photos but I grabbed a couple, enjoy!
Camp:
Kraig getting some use out of the straps:
Aftermath of me hitting a mud hole (6+ hours of cleaning when I got home):
LandOVER (stopped and helped winch him over - I guess a 12 year old girl was driving his rig):

My buddy found a great craigslist deal on some 35x12.5R17 BFG KM2s with 90-95% tread on 4 and 100% tread on the spare so I finally got my old KM2s off (slicks) and got these installed today and couldn't be happier.
