Synergy 2003-2013 Dodge Ram 1500 / 2500 / 3500 Heavy Duty Drag Link

The Synergy 2003-2013 Dodge Ram 1500 / 2500 / 3500 Heavy Duty Drag Link is a heavy duty, bolt-on replacement for the stock steering that requires no drilling or reaming! Updating it to the factory T-style steering design eliminates the toe change common to the old Y-style kits, without the bump-steer "crossover" steering tends to produce. 

We use low misalignment tie rod end boots on our heavy duty tie rod ends to prevent the dead zone in your steering that creates the unwanted tie rod "flop". USA made 1.5" x .250 wall DOM tubing is used to prevent bending or breaking, giving you the confidence to cruise, haul, and wheel wherever you go. For the strongest, most reliable upgrade in steering feel, the complete kit (part number 8525-21) is offered with the Synergy Heavy Duty Tie Rod, Drag Link, and the choice of either a single Synergy Tuned Fox IFP Stabilizer or Dual Stabilizer shock(s).

Fitment:

Warning: 2013 Dodge Ram 3500's were a split year for production. The early model trucks use the T-style steering (drag link is attached to the tie rod), Synergy Part # 8525-01. The late model trucks use cross over steering (drag link is attached to the knuckle and does not attach to the tie rod), Synergy Part # 8725-01. 

Please check what style you have before ordering.
