Customer photo review of 2001-2010 Duramax Death Grip Outer Tie Rods (KRTR10)

Love the look of these and they seem solid my only negative is they sent me a tie rod without any threads on the part that goes into the center link the one side had it and the other one didn’t so I had to take it to my local machine shop and pay them 40$ to thread it

Huge upgrade over stock, as soon as you open the box you see it. You notice the strength difference on rough terrain you don't have your front tires dancing around as much anymore. Can't beat the DDC teams support either. Very fast shipping and great pricing.

Best tie rod out there for these trucks. Easy install. Will make sure you have the correct tooling as the nut for centre link is very big. Great service as always and quick shipping and at the best price!

Well, it started out horrible as I ended up pinned under my truck from trying to get the olds one off causing my to hit the jack and crushing my hand in the process. Had a few good men reattach and tighten old one back in place so that I could get truck to a shop to install and align. Out of hospital and truck drives smooth and no more play in the steering. I don’t recommend my method but I’m extremely happy with the product.

Fits good, no front end problems after 5000km like I had with Mevotech. I was getting tired of having to buy a new set of tires and have my truck aligned every 20,000 km. So far so good, the truck doesn't get abused but spends a fair share of time bouncing through a field on a ranch, would recommend spending the extra on these parts.
