Rear track rods help
« on: 29 November 2018, 18:14:49 »
Hi guys

Just gone to purchase some new rear track rods for the omega. Carparts4less were selling them at £60 each in Lemforder. However they’re out of stock.

I’ve tried heat on mine and the adjustment rod still won’t budge. Anyone got two (that actually move lol) that they’d like to sell me?

Don't be gentle with the heat, get em red roar and then spin them out, drop hot bits into bucket of waste oil and leave to cool down, then re-assemble with bucket loads of copperslip.
