Track rod ends where to buy??
« on: 04 January 2012, 22:52:36 »
Is it worth paying top money for GM or will E-bay stuff do. I have Quinten Hazell for my old 70's cars, any good for the MIG?
Cheers
Paul

Have used Delphi from a factors. I was reluctant as there have been issues with their other steering parts, but was relieved to see other members using them at Newent. They seem ok so far.

Only genuine for me now. Been down the pattern route. Not only did I have to change them again fairly quickly, but also pay again for realignment (and the fuel for a 100m round trip :()  >:(

Annoyingly, they were supposed to be Genuine, but that was the usual Autovaux lie  >:(
