I have bent the left side tie rod on two separate occasions now. Its a 97 Jack 3.2ltr, got a Lokka up front which I'm sure will contribute some extra load and I've just lifted the suspension but only 50mm.
There is a lot of discussion about bending tie rods in the US an UK forums but thats mostly the guys that are doing big lifts and other mods that we aren't allowed 
I thought I would turn up similar stories here but a search turned up little discussion on the subject.
Has anyone else had this problem? It is only the left hand rod that is bending, I've been able to remove it and straighten it on both occasions but I guess its only a matter of time before It breaks.
Before I fork out almost $400 (incl post) for the heavy duty rods from independent4x, are there any other issues or solutions I should be looking at?
Has anyone substituted (mixed and matched) other readily available parts to make their own heavy duty solution?
Right then...... thats my three questions for the day LOL
