well i will find some places that you guys can get them online for cheap.  i got 8 chromoly teflon lined ones for about 65 dollars at a local store.  check out mcmastercar online and they have them for cheap. the only thing with the tie rods is you have to drill out the knuckles and steering stems.



You don't have to drill them out to use the 1/2" heims. wink.gif

Use a 1/2" to 3/8" bushing. Then use a 3/8" bolt, and tighten the crap out of it.

I have a 8in lift on my foreman 500 and when i got the bike it was lifted but i made some adjustments to the lift, i believe it was done by CCP of Mississippi. The tie rods they ran on it were crappy and worn horribly, so i fabbed up some 85 ford ranger tie rod ends, they have grease zerks on them too.
