Version 1

GENERAL NOTES:

 The Synergy Manufacturing Heat treated tie rod replaces the Dynatrac Tie Rod in the same location.
 Replacement tie rod ends are available from Synergy Manufacturing, part number 4131-L and 4131-R.
 This part is designed to be used with the specific Dynatrac Pro-Rock 60 designed for a Jeep JK.

INSTALLATION:

1. Jack the front axle up so the tires are not touching the ground and support with jack stands.

2. Measure the toe in. Mark a vertical line near the middle of the tire tread on both tires. Measure between the

two lines with a tape measure when the mark is on the front of the tire, at the 3 or 9 o’clock position looking

from the side. Make sure the marks are at the same height so the tape measure is level. Note this
measurement then rotate the tires 180 degrees so the mark is on the back of the tire, measure and note that
distance. The difference between the two measurements is the toe-in, and should be about 1/8” positive.
Positive toe-in is when the front of the tires is closer together than the rear of the tires.

3. Remove the steering stabilizer and bracket u-bolts if equipped.

4. Remove the stock tie rod by removing the tie rod end nuts and separate the tie rod ends from the steering

knuckle using a tie rod separator tool or by striking the end of the steering arm with a large hammer.

5. Adjust the tie rod so that the ends are threaded all the way in. Be sure the Jam nuts are installed as well.

Note, one tie rod end is left hand thread (4131-L) and one is right hand thread (4131-R).

6. Install the dust boots onto the tie rod ends. Dust boots will ship with the lower spring pictured as shown

below.

7. Install dust boot onto tie rod end and roll lower spring down to the bottom lip of the dust boot as pictured

below.

8. Tighten the castle nuts to 50 ft-lbs or more to align the cotter pin hole and install the cotter pins

9. Set the toe-in by turning the tie rod. The tie rod end has one left hand tie rod end and one right hand tie rod

end, so you can adjust on the vehicle by turning the tie rod. If you are taking it to an alignment shop the
factory specification is +.20 degrees +/-.03 degrees.

10. Tighten the jam nuts very tight. Jam nuts have tendency to come loose so man up and get it really tight!

Make sure to keep the tie rod ends in a neutral state when the wheels are straight.

11. Install the steering stabilizer bracket and steering stabilizer if equipped. Synergy 8003 clamp is compatible.

Or, if using hydro assist, install ram accordingly. Tie rod is 1-3/8” in diameter so be sure to use a clamp
designed for this size tubing when setting up hydro assist (Synergy part number – 3112).
