A direct replacement extreme duty Tie Rod and Drag Link assembly to replace your underperforming OE steering. Oversized tie rod and drag link ends, connected by massive DOM Steel adjusting sleeves, eliminates death wobble and tightens up steering under the most extreme conditions.

Weak adjusting sleeves are replaced via tie rod and drag link ends threading directly into the connecting rods, secured by jam nuts and our proprietary ninja lock-washers and our New ProLock washers.

This will change the way your vehicle drives forever!

What It Fits:

  • Ford F250 Super Duty (2005-2016) 4WD (except wide track)
  • Ford F350 Super Duty (2005-2016) 4WD (except wide track)

Fitment Notes:

  • Dual Steering Stabilizers - Due to our tie rod ends being 1/8 inch larger in diameter than OE, modifications may need to be made to dual stabilizer kit, tie rod end brackets to fit.
  • BDS Trackbar - Our drag link is not compatible with the BDS Adjustable Trackbar as the adjuster sleeve on the BDS unit will contact the Apex drag link in operation.
  • High Mount Steering Stabilizer - Must be mounted in OE position at taper hole in pitman arm side drag link end. We recommend OE style stabilizers from Fox (Part 985-24-001) and Carli (not through shaft stabilizers such as Fox ATS).
  • Not Compatible With Wide Track
  • Ford F250/F350 05-07: This kit works with 08-Present trucks but for 05-07 will not work with a stock steering stabilizer. You'll need a lower steering stabilizer mount or a dual stabilizer kit. KIT178

The Special Sauce:

  • Housing
    • SAE 1045 Solid Steel Forged Housing: This is unequivocally the best carbon alloy steel for this application.
    • CNC Machined Housing: Make our parts and bearings dimensionally perfect, eliminating any die wear issues.
  • Ball Studs
    • SAE 4140 Hot Forged Chromoly Ball Studs: For the strongest possible metallurgy.
    • Induction Heat Treated Ball Studs: Provides a very precise heat treatment to the exact depth and location we want it.
    • Rolled Threads: Made by pressing the shape of the threads into the ball stud instead of cutting. This strengthens the threads instead of weakening them and allows for easy movement of hardware. This ain't no Ikea furniture!
    • Step Threads: Allows for very easy movement of hardware on install and superior holding when torqued (installer choice).
  • Bearing Design
    • Rugged Metal to Metal Bearing
  • Boots
    • CR Rubber Boots: The most durable material for undercar applications. Resistant to deterioration from road level ozone, oil/gas/engine fluids and extreme heat or cold.
    • Accordion Boot: Ideal for high-articulation components, more flexibility means longer life.
  • Finish
    • Polished Aluminum: Highly polished, raw aluminum
    • Black Aluminum and DOM Steel: Powder coated black
  • Hardware
    • Grade 8 - Class 10.9 Hardware: Superior tensile strength.
    • Castle Nut: Industry standard where high vibration loads occur.
  • Adjusting Rods
    • Tie Rod: 2.125 inch DOM SAE 1020 Tube: Heavy walled steel tubing provides the tightest most robust steering on the market.
    • Drag Link: 1.75 inch DOM SAE 1020 Tube: Heavy walled steel tubing provides the tightest most robust steering on the market.
    • Tie Rod: 2.125 inch 7075-T6 Aluminum Rod: The best aluminum available for this application. Extremely durable but has some flex and memory if you really bash it into something.
    • Drag Link: 1.75 inch 7075-T6 Aluminum Rod: The best aluminum available for this application. Extremely durable but has some flex and memory if you really bash it into something.
  • Lubrication
    • Pre Threaded Zerk Housing: If you have ever installed a MOOG Ball Joint without a pre-threaded zerk fitting you will understand what a simple but great feature this is. Another installer fav.
    • Greaseable: Because it should be.
    • Pre-Greased: Just in case you forget, we have you covered.
    • Gull Winged Grease Grooves: Allows for improved lubrication disbursement around the ball stud.
    • Zerk Fittings: Included for every application.

Special Features:

  • ProLock Link Connect System (TM): Exclusively from APEX - This patent pending system utilizes a precision keyway cut into the threads of our tie rod and drag link ends, and a pre-bent keyway washer that locks onto the wrench flats of the connecting rod to completely stop any tie rod rotation once the jam nut is set. The jam nut, once torqued to spec, is then locked in place with 3 set-screws inset into the jam nut.
  • Pre Bent Ninja Washers (tm): An APEX exclusive is our Ninja Washer which is a unique method of securing the lock nut to the tube, erasing the need for lightly built adjusting tubes with ugly pinch clamps.
  • And who doesn't want a ninja on their front end!
  • Reversible Drag Link: Another APEX Innovation: In some lifted or aftermarket applications the pitman arm end of the drag link is flipped over causing difficulties with mounting the steering stabilizer into the tapered hole on the drag link end. To solve this we have drilled the hole out straight and provided a reversible stainless steel taper sleeve so the steering stabilizer can be mounted from either side.
  • Greaseable, High Articulation Spherical Bushing: For extreme durability our passenger side tie rod is fitted with an oversized greaseable high articulation spherical bushing. This allows for maximum articulation and load disbursement, for better performance, and longer life.
  • Minimum Engagement Mark on Drag Link End Threads: If this mark in the thread of the drag link is showing it means you are beyond the safe engagement of threads into the adjusting sleeve. You may be lifted too high and need to switch to a flip kit or you may need to equal out the adjusting sleeve between the two ends.

Microfiber Has Come a Long Way
Color: 22 - Spa Blue, Size: Queen
I have one of those beds where the head and foot of the bed can be raised or lowered as needed, much like a hospital bed. Except in this case, the mattress is soft but supportive and very thick. If you measure the side from the top edge to the bottom edge of the mattress, it measures a bit over 12 inches. That means, if I want the mattress to actually stay in place it needs to have at least a few inches to tuck under, or it just pulls loose. Many sheets that advertise that they are "deep pocket" sheets often barely go around the mattress, and even clips don't help keep the bottom sheet on. It also means more difficulty in the first place to make the bed if I have to do it myself (I have a "hospital bed" for a reason). I did have two sets of sheets that I loved and were just deep enough to stay on fairly well, but I have had them for several years now, and they have started to get a bit thin in spots and the elastic on the fitted sheet is not as taut as before. Sheets are expensive, but I also have a sensitivity to rough and scratchy material, so the texture had to be something I wouldn't find irritating. The last time I bought "microfiber" sheets was probably when "microfiber" was a new thing, and it usually was some kind of knitted, stretchy material like a t-shirt, but had a tendency to pill badly after a few washings. Still, I needed sheets, and it was winter, and those stretchy knitted sheets were soft and warm, so I ordered two sets of the Extra Deep Queen Sheet Set--one in white, and the other in "spa blue". When they arrived, I was very surprised to see that the quality of the fabric actually mimicked very fine cotton sheets. They were brand new as expected, and they didn't smell or anything, but I do wash things like towels or sheets and some clothing before I use them. They weren't really dirty, so I just washed them in a small amount of detergent and cool water. The directions suggest gentle cycle, but I have a "bulky" setting on my washer that seems gentle enough on sheets but helps avoid issues like the load getting off balance in the tub. I dried it on the low, delicate setting with a sheet of fabric softener to cut down on static and because I wanted a nice scent. The sheets came out beautiful, and have since been used and washed again, and they so far, look and feel even more luxurious than before. I especially appreciate that the manufacturer but a label on the fitted sheet to indicate that the side that was to go on the top/bottom of the mattress. The sheets are VERY deep. More than I require, but now they stay on the bed, no matter how far up or down I move it, or how much I toss and turn. I also bought a set of sheets by another brand, but I really should have just paid the few dollars extra for another set of these. If you are used to those 800-count Egyptian Cotton or those fancy silk and bamboo blend sheets, you're probably going to hate these. But if you ever had to settle for sheets from Dollar General or Walmart, this is going to be a definite upgrade. (My favorite sheets from before I think I ordered online from Sears or Kohl's that were some kind of cotton and synthetic blend. ) Overall, for basic soft, comfortable sheets I can recommend these. They seem to be very warm, so I wonder how "breathable" they would be in the summer, but I tend to be very cold all the time anyway. I love these sheets so far. I'm tempted to order one more set if the other brand ends up being too annoying to deal with.

Perfect set of sheets
Color: 25 - Burgundy, Size: King
This set of sheets were perfect! They are soft and easy to put on our King size bed which has deep fitted corners. The price was great too!! The burgundy looks just like the picture. They are wrinkle resistant- I washed and dried them before using them for the first time and they were wrinkle free. They are not heavy in weight.

Great Sheets
Color: 35 - Lavender, Size: Queen
I really thought the sheets were really nice. I have been looking for good sheets that didn't cost and arm and a leg. The deep pockets are great. I have a mattress that has deep sides, plus I have a topper on that, so the sheets fit great! They are cooling and comfortable to sleep under. Also, I was able to get the color I wanted, lavender. I will be buying another set and do recommend them highly!

Good but not great purchase
Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: Queen, Color: 02 - Antique White, Size: Queen
The sheets are soft and fit the bed amazingly!! Downfall there was a rip in the fitted sheet at one seam. I had to mend it myself as I had to have a sheet to sleep on and a return would take too long. Also a few pieces of thread not properly secured. I am unsure if I will buy again but the pros are: Clean packaging Soft Comfortable

Perfect Teacher Water Cup for Long School Days
Size: 40 Ounces, Color: Rose Quartz 2.0
As a teacher, I carry this with me constantly, and it’s honestly been one of my most-used purchases. The 40 oz size is great because I can fill it once in the morning and not constantly worry about refilling it throughout the school day. It keeps water cold for hours, even when it’s sitting in my classroom all day, and the handle makes it much easier to carry along with everything else teachers somehow end up holding. I also like that it fits in my car cup holder despite being large. The straw lid is convenient for quick sips during class, and the Rose Quartz color is really pretty without being too flashy. The cup feels sturdy and well made, and it’s held up well to daily use. The only downside is that when completely full, it can feel a little heavy, but that’s expected with a large stainless steel tumbler. Overall though, it’s been incredibly practical for staying hydrated during busy teaching days. Definitely worth it if you’re someone who’s constantly on the go and wants cold water all day.
