Tie Rod Diameter/size

[ospreyfe55]

Anyone know what the measurements are for a Tie Rod on a Rubicon JT is? I’m looking to get a JK Steering Stabilizer but not sure what size clamp to get! My options are 1 3/8” or 1/2” or 1 5/8”.
This is what I’m looking at -

On their website, when you click the box to select the size, it states the 1 3/8 is the stock size. So that would be the one you would want if you have not changed anything.

1.75" if you have the absolute BEASTLY Artec steering like I do... HAHA!

However... I do have my stock track bar still laying in the garage. I just went and threw a caliper on it and it came out to 1.58"... so I don't know which one of those clamps you would want to use. Maybe you could force the 1.5" to work.

Also, check out TMR for your clamp... SUPER nice part. Like, one of those parts you pull out of the box and are just impressed by the machine work.

Yeah but that stabilizer is for the JK so I wasn't sure if they made the Gladiator Tie Rod bigger.

I can 100% guarantee that it's not 1-3/8".

The jt/jl use 40mm tie rod diameters. Get the 1 5/8 and it will snug down to fit.

Thnaks for measuring the Tie R

Thanks for getting a measurement. I'm not sure what I'm going to do! This was supposed to just be an easy swap and trying to stay budget friendly! Not working out that well!

I used the 1 5/8 for my ats, snug as a bug.
