5/8 Bent Tie Rod Tube 13in

The 5/8 Bent Tie Rod Tube 13in from ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE is a critical suspension component engineered for street rods, race cars, and custom chassis where geometry demands a pre-bent centerline. This bent tube design accommodates frame modifications and non-standard suspension layouts without requiring custom fabrication or secondary bending operations. Whether you're building a lowered hot rod or tuning a competition vehicle, this ready-to-use tube eliminates guesswork and maintains precise geometry for safe, predictable steering response.

Manufactured from high-strength steel with a 0.875 inch outer diameter and 5/8-18 inch threads, this 13-inch tube is finished in black powder coat for corrosion resistance and a professional appearance. The bent profile is cold-formed to precise angles, preserving material integrity while maintaining consistent wall thickness across the entire length. The 5/8-18 thread specification ensures compatibility with standard tie rod end assemblies and draglink applications common in vintage and custom automotive builds, while the compact 1.28-pound weight keeps suspension unsprung mass minimal—a priority for handling and braking performance.

This tube is ideal for fabricators and enthusiasts running custom or modified front suspensions where off-the-shelf tie rod assemblies don't align with altered geometry. Installation requires standard tie rod end sockets and basic hand tools; the bent configuration means proper clearance checking during mock-up is essential to avoid contact with frame rails or steering components. Universal fitment requires validation against your specific chassis and suspension design before final assembly. Pair this with quality tie rod ends and proper toe-in adjustment for optimal steering feel and tire wear.
