This Roadsafe Chromoly Drag Link is a direct-fit relay rod upgrade for Toyota LandCruiser 80 and 105 Series (1990-2007), machined from 38mm OD solid 4140 chromoly steel with heavy-duty female ends. Replaceable 135HD tie rod ends let you service the wear point without swapping the whole rod, and the adjustable length suits lifted suspension setups without binding or bump-steer. At over 12kg it's a genuine step up from the factory tube-steel item, built for touring and comp work. Pair it with a quality steering damper for tighter steering feel, backed by Australian stock and expert fitment support.

Because this drag link is length-adjustable, it's suited to both standard-height 80/105 Series and vehicles fitted with a raised suspension setup from our lift kit range. Set the length so the drag link runs parallel to the track rod at ride height — this keeps bump-steer to a minimum through the suspension's full travel. If you've already fitted a 2" or 3" lift, tell our team your lift height when ordering so we can confirm the adjustment range covers your setup.
This is a bolt-on replacement for the factory relay rod using the existing steering arm and pitman arm mounting points — experienced DIY installers with hand tools can fit it, though we recommend a qualified 4WD mechanic torque and check the tie rod end tapers. A wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting, since drag link length directly sets toe and steering centre. Allow a short bedding-in period and recheck all fasteners after your first 500km. Consider pairing the install with upgraded control arm upgrades if you're also correcting castor at a lifted ride height.
Roadsafe builds steering and suspension components specifically for Australian 4WD conditions, using chromoly and heavy-wall steel where factory parts use lighter mild steel. This drag link is sold as a genuine replacement/upgrade part rather than a generic reproduction, with tie rod ends that can be replaced individually rather than binning the whole assembly. Browse our full range of suspension components to see other Roadsafe parts we stock for the 80/105 Series.
This drag link suits 80/105 Series owners running heavier front-end loads — bull bars, winches, and lifted suspension — where the factory relay rod is more prone to bending or fatigue. It's also relevant for tourers and comp-spec builds wanting a serviceable steering link instead of a sealed factory unit. If your front end also carries a caravan hitch load or a tray back, check our airbag suspension options to manage rear load alongside your steering upgrade.

Yes, this Roadsafe chromoly drag link is a direct-fit relay rod for Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series (1990-1997) and 105 Series (1998-2007), using the existing steering arm and pitman arm mounting points. It replaces the factory tube-steel relay rod without needing to modify your steering setup. If you're running a lifted front end, let our team know your lift height so we can confirm the adjustment range suits your ride height. Contact our fitment support team if you're unsure about your exact model.
No, this drag link doesn't lift your vehicle — it's a steering component, not a suspension lift part. Its length is adjustable so it can be correctly set to suit vehicles already fitted with raised coil springs or a lift kit, keeping steering geometry correct. If you're after actual lift height, check our lift kit range for coil and shock packages that raise the 80/105 Series.
You get one Roadsafe chromoly drag link machined from 38mm OD solid 4140 chromoly steel, complete with two heavy-duty female rod ends and two replaceable 135HD tie rod ends. Adjuster clamps and lock nuts are included for setting the correct length. Steering dampers, control arms and other suspension components are sold separately.
Yes, the 38mm 4140 chromoly steel construction and heavy-duty female rod ends are built to handle the extra steering loads that come with front-end accessories like bull bars and winches, which is common on tow-rig setups. It's a stronger option than the factory tube-steel relay rod for vehicles carrying more weight up front. For rear-end load management when towing, check our airbag suspension options.
Not necessarily — this drag link is a steering component and doesn't require a control arm change to fit. However, if your 80/105 Series is running a raised suspension, upgraded control arms can help correct castor angle at that ride height, which works well alongside a properly adjusted drag link. Our team can advise on whether your specific lift height needs corrected control arms.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this drag link. Drag link length directly sets toe and steering centre, so the vehicle must be aligned before it's driven on the road. Skipping alignment can cause uneven tyre wear and inaccurate steering feel even though the part itself is correctly fitted.
This drag link has an adjustable length built in, which covers standard-height 80/105 Series vehicles as well as those with a raised suspension setup. Rather than ordering a different part number for a lift, you set the length within the rod's adjustment range at alignment time. If your lift height is unusually high, contact our team to confirm it's within the adjustable range before ordering.
Larger, heavier tyres and wheels increase the steering loads carried through the drag link, which is exactly the scenario this heavy-duty chromoly item is designed to handle better than the factory tube-steel rod. It won't change your alignment settings on its own, but ensure any wheel/tyre change is included when your alignment is done. Talk to our team about your tyre size if you're unsure it fits within factory steering geometry.
This Roadsafe drag link is covered by manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, dispatched from our Australian stock. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase for any warranty claim. Contact our team if you have any fitment or warranty questions before or after installation.
Yes, this drag link is a direct factory-location replacement, so it doesn't change how your LandCruiser drives day to day beyond providing a stronger, more durable steering link. It's used across touring, comp work and everyday driven 80/105 Series vehicles. As with any steering component, get it aligned and checked at your first service interval after fitting.
