In this video my buddy Mike joins me in the garage to help me upgrade my draglink and tie rod to a Yeti XD No Drill Top Mount draglink and 1 ½ ton Yeti XD tie rod by Steer Smarts. We discuss why a high steer setup is beneficial and then, talk about the specs of the new links and then take you through the install process and share several tips and tricks along the way.

The YETI XD "No Drill" Top Mount Draglink and Tie Rod is a complete bolt-on for high steer applications and features our Patent Pending REVERSE TAPER MOUNT design. The YETI XD "No Drill" is the quickest and easiest draglink flip on the market. Installation takes just minutes and there is no need to modify or alter your stock knuckle. This draglink bolts to the factory tapered knuckle hole and the factory pitman arm hole.
FEATURES
YETI XD DRAGLINK AND TIE ROD ASSEMBLIES:
• Easy bolt-on installation.
• Engineered for proper clearance to other chassis components to eliminate interferences.
• Patent Pending "No Drill" Reverse Taper Mount makes for a quick and easy installation without the need of drilling or altering your knuckle.
• MADE IN THE USA
BALL JOINTS:30mm 1 1/2 Ton ball joints designed specifically for the JK.
• Cold headed medium carbon alloy steel ball studs provide incredible impact toughness for extreme duty usage.
• Induction heat treated ball studs provide ultimate fatigue strength and superior off-road durability.
• Steel on steel bearings provide exceptional ball joint wear resistance and robustness.
• High quality seals ensure long ball joint life. Our superior seals have been rigorously tested to minimize leakage between grease service intervals which greatly improves our ball joint reliability over our competition.
• Fully greaseable.
DRAGLINK ENDS:
• Powder coat over E-coat for a long lasting appearance under harsh conditions.
• External threads are e-coated for durability and long term serviceability.
• Forged from medium carbon high harden-ability steel and heat treated for greater buckling, impact, and fatigue strength.
• Forged from medium carbon high hardenability steel and heat treated for even greater buckling, impact, and fatigue strength.
• Large 1 ¼ inch rolled threads at tie rod adjuster and draglink ends provide significantly increased strength over the original equipment threads.
• Unique “Reverse Pin” technology prevents our linkage from flopping or rocking. This technology is built into the socket unlike the weak external supports on some competitor linkages.
ADJUSTER TUBES:
• Draglink adjuster is manufactured from large diameter ¼ inch thick wall high strength 4130 Chromoly steel tubing for maximum buckling strength.
• Adjuster clamps assure proper clamp force using conventional tools without the possible risk of loosening like large jam nuts.
• Designed with right hand and left hand threads for quick and easy adjustment when installed on the vehicle.
• Internal threads and tube are also e-coated for long term serviceability.
KIT INCLUDES:
• (1x) YETI XD Tie Rod Assembly - Part# 78065001
• (1x) YETI XD "No Drill" Top Mount Draglink Assembly - Part# 78063001

I was about to comment and asked how that worked. I have always made sure my drag link and track bar were parallel to eliminate bump steer. I am glad you are raising your track bar, it will drive a lot better when it is parallel with your drag link.

that wiggle, or looseness in a tape measure, is intentional and is engineered to work for measuring inner and outer distances. It's basically loose by the thickness of the hook. When measuring an inner distance the hook is pressed in to account for the thickness and when measuring an outer distance the hook stretches as well. I hope that makes sense.

I have the synergy drag link and I'm going to upgrade to the Yeti drag link soon. I have the Yeti tie rod and it's been great. The synergy is a pita to adjust after alignments. This is much like the stock dl in that it's a simple loosen, turn and tighten to get the steering wheel straight. Great, informative video.

Good video and upgrade. I used to do all the wheel alignments when I was turning wrenches at a Ford and GM dealership in Wisconsin, and man I do NOT miss getting under vehicles in the winter time with everything dripping on you and ESPECIALLY trucks from the rendering plant. I'm not sure if you know it or not, but the reason the end of every tape measure is loose like that, is because it needs to take up the difference in the thickness of the hook part, when you have it hooked on the end of a board or is you are measuring in between two studs in a wall. If the hook was mounted solid to the tape, you would get two different measurements. Just take the tape and hook it over a board and mark off 1" and then do the same thing but this time put your finger at the end and butt the hook up against your finger so it can not hook over the end of the board and it is flush and you'll see the tape is able to slide in slightly and the 1" mark will be in the same spot. The tape has to move the same distance as the thickness of the hook to be able to measure hooked over a board and flush with the same board. Keep up the great work.

Just as a note for people that do not know the tape measure will always have the metal loose end. it moves back and forth the distance that is equal to the thickness of the metal piece. so if you butt up or clip over with the tape measure you will get the same distance.,

Crazy how things get cycled when it comes to steering. Late 2000s/early 2010's Synergy was the front-runners when it came to steering. Then Steersmarts became the premier company for steering linkage & Synergy practically faded into obscurity. Now the majority of Industry has transitioned to 2.5 ton aluminum sleeves and Steersmarts is fading eventhough they went the aluminum route as well but they were a little too late to the party. Now RPM are the cool, trendy kids.

Hey Brad, did you add these to the JT? Curious about how the install and if you felt it tighten up. Was there a big weight difference from the stock drag link and tie rod? I wonder if weight helps with the dampening other than if the JK’s are the same as the JL/JT with Steersmarts heavier steering components. Awesome video!

Better go order up a raised track bar mount. Yes.. You want the drag link to be parallel... to the TRACK BAR! Without that you will end up with massive bump steer because as the axle travels in its suspension travel the drag link and track bar will move in a different radius. This will present itself as bump steer. BTW... one of the best upgrades the YETI components have is an anti-flop design to the joints. This eliminates a lot of straight line play felt in a typical JK front end. Great stuff!

Usually, but if you're getting bump steer at 3"-3.5" it wouldn't hurt.

How tall would a Jeep JK be with a leveling kit and 35" tires and do they have good mileage. Also look into rough country's inner finder well, I would love a install on that.

Gave it to Mike! It wasn't a high steer setup.

Why would you flip your drag link without flipping the tie rod?? It’s closest to the rocks. Makes no sense

The draglink flip isn't about clearance, it's about improved handling, which has certainly now been improved.

При такой схеме катастрофически теряется качество управления автомобилем на шоссе. На неровностях и кочках придется подруливать. Если вы опускаете тягу панара у рулевого редуктора, то нужно опускать рулевую тягу заменой рулевой сошки, а не переворачивать тягу в кулаке. Если вы устанавливаете брекет переноса тяги панара на мост, тогда можно оставить старую рулевую сошку, но перевернуть рулевую тягу в кулаке. Если управляемость важна.

That mechanic may want to stick to mechanics because a tape measure has that loose end for a reason. They are made that way. May be a smart man when it comes to working on jeeps but that statement made him seem like he may not have a clue what he’s talking about

Yep, tried to edit the audio, but couldn't get rid of it all. Not sure where it was coming from... worry about that.
