Jeep Wrangler TJ Suspension Lift Kit - Front - Rugged Ridge - HD Steering Kit with Damper - Black - 1997–2006. A heavy-duty, bolt-on steering upgrade engineered to resist bent tie rods and improve control when running larger tires.

Built from true DOM 1-1/4 in. OD steel with a 1/4 in. wall, this Rugged Ridge HD system delivers one-ton strength while retaining factory knuckle geometry—no drilling or reaming required. Oversized 7/8 in. tie rod ends use standard tapers for reliable fitment, and the included steering damper helps manage shimmy on and off the trail. The kit includes a drag link, tie rod, and ends in a durable black finish for a clean, practical install.
