Anyone else have this?

Has anyone else had this problem? I recently added a BDS lift with bigger tires and rims and had the tie rod bushing blow out only 3 weeks after. I am not sure if it was on its last leg or not, but my guess is yes. Anyway I guess I'll be replacing this thing every 3weeks if this is the case. Is this a Dodge default or just related to my additions?

A 6" lift puts quite an angle on things, did it come with a new pitman (steering) arm?
You could try the crossover steering kit http://thurenfabrication.com/crossover.html to compensate.

Are you talking about the rubber boot being split? If so, they probably did it when they seperated the pieces for what ever reason. They used a pickle fork probably? Maybe, No??
