Description
Take control of your Jeep's steering with the Apex Chassis 2.5 Ton ProLock Steering System. Engineered for Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT owners who demand maximum strength, precision, and reliability, this complete steering upgrade is built to withstand the abuse of oversized tires, technical rock crawling, high-speed desert travel, and daily driving alike.
Unlike factory steering components that can flex under load, the Apex 2.5 Ton System utilizes massive 2" diameter 7075-T6 aluminum adjusting rods combined with forged steel tie rod and drag link ends for exceptional durability and steering confidence both on and off the trail.
At the heart of the system is Apex's patent-pending ProLock Link Connect System™, designed to eliminate unwanted tie rod rotation and prevent jam nuts from loosening over time. The result is a steering system that stays properly adjusted and performs consistently in the harshest environments.

ProLock Link Connect System™

Combined with locking jam nuts featuring integrated set screws, the system helps eliminate one of the most common steering failures on lifted Jeeps—loose steering links and rotating tie rods.
Built for Serious Abuse
Massive 2" 7075-T6 Aluminum Rods
Constructed from premium aircraft-grade aluminum, these steering links provide exceptional strength while retaining the flexibility needed to absorb impacts from rocks and trail obstacles.
Forged Chromoly Ball Studs
Hot-forged SAE 4140 chromoly ball studs are induction heat-treated and feature rolled threads for superior strength and durability.
Forged Steel Housings
Precision CNC-machined SAE 1045 forged steel housings deliver unmatched strength and dimensional accuracy.
Greaseable Service Design
Every steering end is fully greaseable and pre-greased from the factory for maximum service life and easy maintenance.
Industry-Leading Articulation
Integrated Flopper Stoppers provide up to 27 degrees of side-to-side articulation while minimizing unwanted fore-and-aft movement. Unlike competitor designs that require removing protective boots, Apex maintains full sealing protection to keep grease in and contaminants out.
