The Ultimate Front-End Upgrade Kit for Ford Super Duty

Upgrade your 2005–2016 Ford F250/F350 with the ultimate front-end performance package, featuring CORE 4X4’s Adjustable Front Track Bar and 2.5 Ton Steering Kit. This kit addresses common steering and alignment issues by replacing weak factory components with high-performance alternatives built for precision, strength, and durability. Whether you’re towing, off-roading, or daily driving, this combination ensures rock-solid front-end stability, precise steering control, and improved suspension geometry across all conditions and lift heights.

The Adjustable Front Track Bar eliminates axle shift and helps reduce death wobble with on-vehicle adjustability and a robust chromoly adjuster system. Complementing it, the 2.5 Ton Steering Kit replaces the tie rod and drag link with 7075 aluminum upgrades and heavy-duty Apex ends for lasting alignment and confident handling. Together, they deliver a responsive, tight, and bulletproof steering setup for your Super Duty.

What’s Included?

  • Adjustable Front Track Bar – F-SD-05-FTB
  • 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade – F-SD-05-TR1
  • 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade – F-SD-05-DL1
  • APEX Heavy Duty Track Bar Ball Joint Upgrade – BJ162

Key Features and Benefits

  • On-vehicle adjustable track bar with chromoly sleeve and jam nut system to maintain perfect axle alignment across most lift heights
  • 2.25” 7075 aluminum tie rod and 1.75” drag link absorb impacts without bending, preserving steering precision in rugged conditions
  • Heavy-duty Apex tie rod ends and friction washers prevent misalignment, ensuring a locked-in setup under extreme loads
  • Reduces death wobble, bump steer, and front-end play for improved handling, towing stability, and off-road control

Built for Strength and Stability

The track bar features cold-rolled 1.5″ OD steel and replaceable polyurethane bushings to reduce NVH and increase durability. Its adjustability ensures your axle stays centered and your geometry dialed in, even with suspension lifts or oversized tires. The included APEX ball joint upgrade adds even more strength and precision for high-mileage or heavily modified setups.

The 2.5 Ton Steering Kit’s aluminum construction offers a unique balance of strength and flexibility, with a 2.25” tie rod and 1.75” drag link that maintain alignment even after hard hits. Apex tie rod ends are engineered for extreme environments, while the friction washer system ensures alignment settings stay locked in, even under aggressive off-road or towing conditions.

Powder Coating Options

All components undergo a two-stage powder coating process that begins with a zinc primer base for corrosion protection and finishes with your choice of 10 durable color options or raw aluminum, giving you long-term performance with custom style.

Fitment Notes

  • Fits 2005–2016 Ford F250 and F350 Super Duty trucks (except wide track)
  • Compatible with high mount steering stabilizer in OE pitman arm taper location 08-16 trucks
  • For 2005–2007 models, a lower mount or dual steering stabilizer setup ( such as KIT178) is required

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, with American craftsmanship and rigorous quality control to ensure maximum reliability, strength, and performance.

Conclusion

The CORE 4X4 Front-End Kit (F-SD-05-FEK) combines the best of both worlds: precise axle alignment from the adjustable track bar and unshakable steering strength from the 2.5 Ton Steering Kit. This is the complete solution to eliminate factory weaknesses, reduce death wobble, and give your Ford Super Duty the control and confidence it deserves—on the road, off the trail, and everywhere in between.

FAQs

Our product lines are designed to offer the absolute most value for your budget. Not every build is the same and we understand that. Our series differ mostly in the components used in the construction of the parts. Our Cruise and Town Series utilizes our high grade flex poly bushings at both ends of the arm, this has proven to be a smooth riding easy to maintain and replace bushing that we absolutely love. Our Camp and Trail Series utilizes 5/16″ wall DOM tubing and incorporates a flexible Johnny Joint at the adjusting end, this series has been our most popular series for all around use, great for daily drivers that want to tear up the trails as well. Our Crawl, Tow, and Track Series utilizes the same 5/16″ wall DOM tubing, but features Johnny Joints at both ends. This series gives you the absolute most out of your suspension. This is great for heavy towing/hauling and extreme off-roading. Also, if the component is straight in these series we will machine these left and right hand threaded for easy adjustment on the vehicle!

We are constantly expanding our product lines to include complete kits, if you don’t see something on the site for your vehicle, reach out to our sales team and we can put something together for you.

Our two main sizes of jam nuts require an1-1/2″ wrench or an 1-5/8″ wrench. Generally speaking the 1-5/8″ jam nuts are used on our lower control arms and the 1-1/2″ jam nuts on our upper control arms and track bars. There are some exceptions, but we do offer a crow’s foot that has both sizes.

Any non-synthetic moly based grease is safe on our products, avoid anything red as this can prematurely deteriorate the internal components of the Johnny Joints and bushings used on our parts.
