Both MOOG and Crown make the end links to fit the Rock Krawler HD Tie Rod. What I'd like to do is throw a set of Heim joints on it but there's little clearance even with the TeraFlex Drag Link Flip kit. So maybe once I go to the Reid Knuckles it will work. Remember the End Links for the RK are the Drag Link ones not the OEM tie rod ends which are too small.

Yep I know about the drag link ends, so its confirmed that the Moog ES3624 fits the 2nd Gen rock krawler tie rod? Thanks for the help guys

Did a little research on this before. I've added the link. Look at post #4 for Moog #'s. The prices were from Lordco.
