Wanted rear track rod ends (pls move)
« on: 04 July 2010, 00:11:05 »
Hi All

Just because i've not tried to buy enough off of you guys....

pair of rear track rod ends for '01 3L

Not a clue what they are, or for, so I'm open to abuse  ;D

I wouldn;t, not on the rear, they are pretty bulletproof.

And if you want a cheapr alternative to WD40 as a penetrating fluid then piss on them.....its about as good

Do you mean not bother new? Mine are so seized that my mech feels he'll destroy them if he tries too hard to adjust, and I'm getting inner tread wear

Not a fan of WD then I take it? I have some rather expensive (£40 per .5L) silicon oil, frees anything you point it at
