Stronger inner tie rods

Hi, I was wondering if any of you know of stronger tie rods that could replace the original (mainly the inner one)?
And maybe if it could be possible to use the Raptor's tie rods ?

So far, I have broken 2 inner tie rods (right side both times) the last couple of years. I know they are not expensive but I was hoping to avoid future breakage on the trail. They seem to crack first, then later brake, when hitting a rock or a hole in the road.
Luckily this has not happened at any major speeds, but next time ?? :S

Yeah there are better aftermarket tie rods for your truck. Go to Search Results by 4 Wheel Parts they should have just what you are looking for and something that will hold up better with your setup.
