7/8" x 18TPI Right Hand Tube Adapter 1" ID HEX

Hex Head TRE Adapter for Easy Steering Adjustments

This is a Hex Head Tie Rod End weld bung/tube adapter. In a TRE setup, adjustability is the key to easy steering alignment, so we provide this style with all our steering kits. Here we offer them individually if you are making your own drag link or tie rod.

They are more expensive to make than our standard weld bungs but make setting up your steering that much easier.

  • Part Number: R1071
  • Thread: 7/8"-18 TPI Right Hand
  • Fits 1" inner diameter tubing
  • Hex head for easy wrench adjustments
  • Material: Mild steel, weld-in style

Tips to help prevent any seized or warped threads:

  • Correctly adjust welder settings — too much heat can warp the threads.
  • Do not weld the tube adapter with the rod end threaded inside — excess heat can damage the liner.
  • Be careful to avoid prolonged heat on the tube adapter when welding inside D.O.M.

1 ton Upgrade

I got a pair of them, 1 LH and 1 RH for a 1 ton over the knuckle set-up for my YJ D44 front. They fit in the tube great with plenty of material left for welding and strength. They have over an inch outside the tube so they are easy to grab onto with a wrench for tightening or loosening. These are my new go to for 1 ton steering.

Worked Great

I used this with welded tubing, not the DOM sold by RuffStuff because it is what I had. I do not recommend this as the fit is not great and this makes it harder to align when welding. I had to start with tubing which was looser, tack the adapter in place and then hammer it straight before welding it up. Do yourself a favor and buy the DOM. The seam inside welded tubing makes working with the welded stuff a real pain. The adapter welded easily and I had no problem getting good weld penetration.

Perfect fit.

This tube adapter along with the DOM tubing Ruff Stuff sells was exactly what I needed. The adapter fit perfectly inside the tube, no slop so I was not worried it being straight. I was a little worried about overheating the threads during welding, but everything turned out fine.
