Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD 2011-2026 GMC - Heavy Duty Tie Rod Kit by BDS Suspension

Strengthen your steering system with the BDS 081001 HD Tie Rod Kit for GMC Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD trucks. Designed to outperform factory components, this heavy-duty tie rod assembly is built to handle oversized tires, suspension lifts, and aggressive on- and off-road use without compromise.

BDS HD tie rods feature a massive forged outer housing paired with heat-treated inner and outer ball studs for maximum strength and durability. Both ends utilize sealed, lifetime-greased joints to protect against dirt, moisture, and debris—ensuring long service life even under harsh driving conditions. With a 37% larger thread diameter than stock, these tie rods significantly reduce the risk of bending, which is the most common failure point in OE designs.

This kit is a direct replacement for factory inner and outer tie rods and is fully compatible with all BDS GM HD suspension lift kits (2011–current), while also working with stock-height trucks and most aftermarket lift systems. An included installation tool simplifies attachment of the inner joint to the center link for a clean, professional install.
