GMC K1500 1988-1998 Kryptonite Death Grip Tie Rod Kit

SKU:
KRTR88-1
$369.99

Product Overview

Engineered exclusively for the Extreme demands of Heavy Duty Trucks. Built with pride in the USA to work with stock or modified suspension. Kryptonite Death Grip tie rods will fit any 1988-1999 Chevy/GMC Trucks that has the centerlink mounted in the factory location, and can be upgraded in the future to accept the Kryptonite Centerlink. Using superior components and engineering, these tie rods easily outperform the competition. Kryptonite series tie rods can be used with the Kryptonite series center link or with your factory center link. In recent laboratory strength tests we applied enough pulling pressure to rip apart the OEM, Aftermarket, and Kryptonite series tie rods. The OEM tie rods fail at 9000 pounds of pressure.  The much larger diameter aftermarket tie rods designed to fit lifted suspension trucks, failed at 17000 pounds of pressure. Kryptonite tie rods held up to an incredible 21000 pounds of pressure before pulling apart. 

Fits: GMC K1500 Trucks 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998
