I don't think there would be a difference between them.

So what do you guys think? Order it and give it a shot? Which bar worked?

I don't want to drop $300 on a synergy or poly if I can get something like the ruff stuff for half plus shipping.

I thought the RUFF ends are big as well?

I know a guy who has a RK tie rod and my same wheels.

RK as far as I know uses the factory TRE at the pitman. Moog was also a option but people had issues with the threaded rod being bent.

The tie rod end used on the RK tie rod is pretty beefy as well. You could go to the local dealer and buy the end (as long as they accept returns) and kind of hold it in place and see if you have interference issues.

If you don't want to lay out any money at all you could remove the drag link end (at the pitman arm) and use that to mock it up.

Let us know if you would like pricing on anything. Good luck!

The only thing I need to change is the tie rod. I have the synergy drag link from pitman to Reid knuckle and no problems.

The stock drag link is to small at the tre for the knuckles to bolt up.

If I but the ruff stuff and its to big, then ill sell it locally. I'm really just looking for the easiest fix here and if anyone has the same set up.

Thanks for all the help and advice.
