Tie Rod Adjuster Nissan Navara D22

This ALL New Generation 2.0 Tie Rod Adjuster from Superior Engineering has been designed to suit the D22 STR/DX model Nissan Navara four wheel drive vehicle.

Design Objectives

Superior has designed this adjustable Tie Rod assembly to prevent the tie rods from bending after doing a lift or adding bigger tyres to your truck… Perfect for D22’s with lifts from 0″-3″ inches.

These tie rod adjusters offer a HUGE strength upgrade over OE and bolt straight up to OE steering linkages… making them a complete bolt-in replacement for your factory adjusters!

Features two heavy duty 3mm weld on skid plates to stop the tie rod nut fouling on the chassis, which can cause the tie rod to SNAP if the vehicle “Centre Rod” becomes worn or takes on hard impact which is transmitted to the steering.

This component is proudly made right here in Australia, manufactured from high tensile steel, cnc machined for the ultimate in durability and strength, then sand-blasted and finished off in a 7-Step SA5 Zinc coating for maximum corrosion resistance.

The kit includes Tie-Rod Adjusters, Weld-on skid plates, Heavy Duty Rod-Ends, ITS sealing rings, locking nuts and cotter pins.

These adjusters are 100% Street Legal and Compliant, and DO NOT require separate approvals to be used on Public roads within Australia.

They are sold as a pair and come ‘Ready to Fit’ straight out of the box with easy to follow fitting instructions.

To up the stakes even further, Superior Engineering now includes ITS Seal Technology on internally threaded adjustable suspension linkages, eliminating the ingress of moisture or liquids that can cause corrosion or rust.

By adding a specially machined seal groove and incorporating a hydraulic seal between the locking nuts, the thread and the link, a perfect pressure tight seal is created.

This patented process is EXCLUSIVE to Superior Engineering’s internally threaded items such as these tie rod adjusters.

To top it all off, the Superior logo is engraved onto the rods to ensure you’re getting a GENUINE Superior Engineering component instead of a cheap inferior copy from other manufacturers.

4WD Tie Rod And Steering Arms

Today we are checking out the heavy duty Superior Engineering Comp Spec 4340M Tie Rod Steering Arms.

Design Objectives

These fully adjustable 4340M Tie Rods have been custom designed and manufactured for the MK/MQ/GQ/GU Nissan Patrol and Toyota Landcruiser 40/45/47/60/75/78/79/80/105 Series four wheel drive vehicles.

The problem with standard hollow bar Tie Rods is that they can bend if hit from various obstacles such as rocks, logs, debris and bumps.

This is the main cause for premature failure of your vehicles steering arms.

These NEW steering arms are designed to safely absorb and deflect impact energy from any heavy contact made on any solid object while driving offroad.

The difference with this new design over the standard Tie Rod is Superior are the only company to use the high tensile 4340M Super Solid Bar that is CNC machined to exact tolerances to create the toughest steering arms available.

This makes Superior Engineering’s 4340M Tie Rods “The Strongest Nissan Patrol and Toyota Landcruiser Steering Rods in the World”.

Advancements

Tie Rods are also commonly known in the 4×4 industry as steering rods or steering arms but here at “4×4 Accessories Online” we like to call them “Rock Rods”.

Superior used to use the 4140 solid high tensile steel for their Nissan comp spec steering rods and these were unbeleivably strong.

However, the engineers over at Superior Engineering decided to “Up The Stakes” even further due to the competition getting closer with new products.

Hence, the 4340M Tie Rod was born!

The 4340M range has now put them miles in front of the competition once again, leaving everyone else scrambling to keep up.

With these 4340M Tie Rods you will get the same gear the professionals are using.

Ideal for the serious or hardcore four wheel driver, or if you just want piece of mind you won’t bend or damage your steering rods.

These Superior Tie Rods are a small investment for a lifetime of protection for your four wheel drive steering system.

100% Guarantee that these Tie Rods are stronger than your original or any other aftermarket Tie Rods going around!
