Overview

The Synergy 8600-01 Heavy Duty Drag Link that is an upgrade for the front end of your 2005-2023 Ford F-250/350 Super Duty. This drag link is a direct bolt-in replacement for the factory unit that will deliver an immediate upgrade in steering feel and strength. The drag link is made from high-quality DOM steel tubing for the utmost strength. It features a single plane tie rod end on the axle side which reduces drag link flop. This drag link is machined to allow you to retain the stock steering stabilizer. It is also compatible with most aftermarket stabilizers with the use of a Synergy 4050-50 stabilizer clamp.

• Ford F-450 / F-550 at full suspension compression, the drag link may contact the outer plastic protective sleeve of the stabilizer. There is no damage to the stabilizer, but to avoid this slight contact we recommend running 1" of bump Stop spacing. If running a tie rod-mounted steering stabilizer, no bump stop spacing is required.
