The Ultimate Steering Upgrade for Your Ford Super Duty

Upgrade your 2005-2016 Ford F250/F350 with the CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Steering Kit, engineered for unmatched durability, steering precision, and front-end strength. Factory steering components wear out, weaken, and lead to misalignment, wandering, and bump steer, especially under heavy loads or off-road conditions.

This complete tie rod and drag link upgrade is built from 7075 aluminum, a high-strength material that flexes under impact to prevent permanent bending. Equipped with heavy-duty Apex tie rod ends and friction washers for absolute jam nut security, this kit maintains alignment, improves steering response, and enhances overall front-end stability.

What’s Included in the Kit?

  • CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Tie Rod Upgrade – F-SD-05-TR1
  • CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Drag Link Upgrade – F-SD-05-DL1

Key Features Benefits

  • 2” 7075 Aluminum Construction – Exceptionally strong yet flexible, absorbing impacts and returning to its original shape to maintain precise steering alignment.
  • Heavy-Duty Apex Tie Rod Ends – Designed to handle extreme loads, ensuring long-lasting performance in all driving conditions.
  • Friction Washer System for Secure Alignment – Serrated friction washers under jam nuts create a permanent mechanical lock, eliminating the risk of misalignment.

Unparalleled Steering Control Strength

This steering kit significantly reduces front-end play, improves handling, and ensures alignment stays locked in, even under the stress of off-road driving, heavy towing, or lifted applications. The advanced memory properties of 7075 aluminum prevent deformation, ensuring your steering remains precise and responsive, even after hard impacts.

Two-Stage Powder Coating for Customization Durability

The tie rod and drag link are available in raw aluminum or 10 powder coat colors to match your truck’s aesthetic. Our two-stage powder coating process includes a zinc primer base for corrosion resistance and a durable top coat for long-lasting protection.

Made in the USA

Proudly manufactured in Orem, UT, our CORE 4X4 steering components are built with American craftsmanship and industry-leading quality control, ensuring the highest level of performance and reliability.

Fitment

Fits all 05-16 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty trucks (except wide track)

HIGH MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER – Must be mounted in OE position at taper hole in pitman arm side drag link end. We recommend OE style stabilizers

This kit works with 08+ trucks but for 05-07 will not work with a stock steering stabilizer. You’ll need a lower steering stabilizer mount or a dual stabilizer kit. KIT178

Conclusion

The CORE 4X4 2.5 Ton Steering Kit Upgrade is the ultimate solution for improving steering strength, maintaining alignment, and ensuring long-term durability. Whether you’re off-roading, towing, or daily driving, this kit eliminates weak factory components and provides superior handling and stability.

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.
