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?

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?

best bet is get it as close as you can and then take it to get the tracking done Very Happy
