Has anyone had a problem with there 2014 Mav tie rods yet ...I'm going to the dunes in 2 weeks and don't want to run into any issues

I think they are the same as the 13's, so you can just get a set of replacements for back up.

 

[Chappy227]

Yeah same as 13. I changed mine and very surprised how thin they are.

 

[legend]

That's what I was thinking... Just curious how hard people are hitting them to get them to break

Honestly, it won't take a huge hit to bend em either. Glamisfan and Mega were both suprised that I bent one this last dune season. It was a fair to middlin drop, but after looking at the hill, I wouldn't have thouhgt I woulda bent one either. Get some aftermarket one, (I got CT Racing) or atleast a spare oem if you can.

I carry both my oems for spares (the bent one now has a chrome moly sleave) incase one of my fellow Mav riders find himself in the same perdicament.

Don't buy turn keys there too long... The 2014 Dps maverick has shorter tie rods. I'm on the second set they have shipped and still don't fit

Worse than that...they're hollow.

Oops, thanks.

Ya I'll be in glamis

 

[Jsmith]

Don't wait till they break before you change them. Several have had them break and it also caused broke axles and many other issues. Change them now.

Really? What is the length of the stock tube?

 

[wickedcummins]

Yes I believe they are 12 1/4 just the sleeve. I can double check tonight!

 

[wickedcummins]

This is the comparison picture

This is there length

 

[wickedcummins]

and with both nuts completely maxed out as far as they will thread out Toe is still too much negative.
