So for about 5 or 6 months my trucks steering has been getting really loose. Do you think I need a new drag link and tie rod?? I installed my carli track bar a few months ago and that seemed to help my front end sway

Re: Sloppy steering
Certainly a possibility, if you do need to replace your steering go with something better than oem. I've been through 4-5 factory steering sets and they never stay tight for long. Synergy emf Thuren - there are good options on the market these days.

Re: Sloppy steering
Would highly recommend Thuren steering parts. I've been steadily replacing everything as it wears out and the difference is very noticeable. Also, a steering box brace is a good idea as well

Re: Sloppy steering
I'll look into thuren. It's a shame Carli doesn't make more steering components
