Gonna replace outer track rod ends.

Notice some on Egay are l/h or r/h yet same seller is selling some that will fit either side?

Guessing handed is the way to go???

If you order a pair you'll have no problem Wink but I think they fit any side

They are both sided so you need to buy one of each trust me they have a gap for the left or right.
Replaced mine last week.

Nice one fellas, top advice as usual!

Are you all using measurements from the old ones (i.e. exposed number of threads from locknut) or is there a specified measurement when fitting new ones?
