Tie Rod Tube Kit

The Tie Rod Tube Kit from Chassis Engineering is a weld-on fabrication component designed for builders and fabricators who demand precision in suspension geometry and durability in high-performance or custom applications. This kit serves as the foundation for custom tie rod assemblies in street rods, race cars, and heavily modified vehicles where OEM suspension architecture has been replaced or significantly altered. Whether you're constructing a custom front end from scratch or upgrading an existing independent suspension setup, this component provides the structural integrity needed to handle sustained cornering loads and precise steering response.

Constructed from steel in its natural finish, the Tie Rod Tube Kit features 7/16-inch rod ends and includes all necessary hardware for installation. The weld-on design allows fabricators to integrate the assembly directly into custom chassis work, eliminating the need for bolt-on brackets that can introduce flex under load. Steel construction provides superior strength and thermal stability compared to aluminum alternatives, making it ideal for vehicles that see track time or aggressive driving. The included hardware ensures that assembly and attachment points are complete, reducing the need for sourcing additional fasteners and reducing installation downtime.

This kit is essential for fabricators, suspension specialists, and serious DIY builders tackling custom frame and suspension projects. Real-world applications include independent front suspension conversions, street rod builds, circle-track race cars, and heavily modified performance vehicles where steering geometry must be customized for ride height, track width, or alignment specifications. The compact dimensions (4.25 × 2.95 × 14.85 inches) and modest weight of 2.27 lbs make this a practical component to integrate into tight engine bays or complex suspension layouts. Always verify clearance and mounting angles before welding to ensure alignment geometry meets your vehicle's intended geometry and handling characteristics.
