#3: Re: track rod ends Author: DeadEyePaul, Location: Rugby,WarwickshirePosted: Mon Jul 19, 2010 7:17 am ---- I have bought 2 from eurocarparts 17.00 each side (they do have one at 11 each side) but a fellow member advice is to buy cheap and buy twice
For changing them there are videos on YouTube on how to do it but afterwards get the tracking done
#4: Re: track rod ends Author: DeadEyePaul, Location: Rugby,WarwickshirePosted: Thu Jul 22, 2010 10:46 am ---- i did mine yesterday, took maximum of 30mins to do both sides! getting tracking done tomorrow as my steering wheel is at 35 degrees left to drive straight
how did you get on with it? its easy peeze fitting it yourself.. i'm a noob and i did it

i followed this guide, i found it was easier to loosen the bolt on the end of the tracking rod first then undo the one attached to the wheel hub
yer if there rusted on or tight its a good way to do it but i had mine of previously so were already loose lol

no it was just rust. mine took about half an hour of heating with a blowtorch to get it off and even then it was a struggle.
