Now I know I said we would never make tie rods because the Ikeya formula ones are great because they go really long, and they are not an insanely expensive mod. The only problem is that the Yen to dollar has plummeted, driving up our selling price to $140. IF Japan is always out of stock and just does not have any discounts to let us make money, so although I still sell them as a favor to our customers who need them for the SAK, the pressure has made me think in a new more efficient direction....

Introducing: MAX original tie rods

Long and strong! Check out the prototype inner tie rods we have created with large diameter, extra long length, and built in 1pc. 7mm angle spacers! The extra length is a must for our super angle kit modded knuckles but the multi piece design of the IF rods we used to sell is just not necessary so we are going to have a smoking price on these.
We will also sell matching OEM style strengthened ends just like we have always recommended using (SAK modded knuckles dont need bumpsteer spacers found on all the aftermarket outers)

Much stronger than OEM because of the increased diameter however in the case of a collision, we have you covered because these are factory tested to bend 180 degrees without breaking!

Price will be $75 for the inner pair and $50 for the outer pair with free shipping

Hey Dan,

can i use your tie rods with my OEM S13 hubs to get a little bit more lock?
Or do i´ll need some other modifications?

-OEM hubs
-your inner tie rods
-S14 outer tie rods
-grind the bumpstop a little bit down

= more lock without overcentering?

yes my tie rods will give more angle without other mods but you need the super angle knuckles to prevent over centering.
