Any one know were to find a solid tie rod for an older jeep, 1978. I need the one that goes from wheel to wheel.

im taking it you are talking about the middle piece? try some junkyards.. or quadratec.. four wheel drive hardware.. or get a piece of solid steel that size.. and have a machine shop thread it for you..
they sell them at the above mentioned sites for like 33 bucks.. i think..

That's the one with a tie rod FIXED in one end right? 4WD hardware has them I believe but they are pricey, $100??

buy some round stock, cut it to length and drill and tap it for the rod ends you want to use.

or try rockstomper.com

that guy makes some really strong ones
