BD's tie rods are 1.5 times as thick as stock to cut flex, with larger inner ball joints to cut wear. BD's testing showed they take more than twice the force the factory rods can.
The greaseable ball joints use sintered bearings for better load holding and longer life. It is a sturdier fix than add-on tie rod sleeves.
