Tie rod endlinks

[huntz0r]

I searched, googled, etc. Not much info around on this part.

Anyway, my S13's right tie rod is shot. I already have the price for a stock replacement, but I know there are aftermarket endlinks out there too (Kazama, Tein) and as usually happens when something breaks on my car, I first look into upgrading it. :)

However I can't find them at any of the usual 240SX sites I know of. I don't even have any idea what they cost, or how much real benefit I would see over regular everyday Moog bits.

advice and/or links?

I would just go with the Moog parts. Cheap, long lasting, regreaseable.

thanks. would you believe I searched on "tein tie rod" and got no relevant hits... if I had used the word "rods" instead I would have found that post. *sigh*

Oh well, for $160 total they are right on the very edge of being justifiable. But a little more so on the "knock it off you ricer, you don't need that" side of the line :D

I guess I will get Moog ends.

There's nothing ricey about a stronger, new aftermarket part that allows you to perform better.

heh, not unless you suck too much for it to be of any benefit besides being able to say "ooh I got Tein stuff" hehe.

bah. I still say I suck, even if I can drive better than ppls... Besides, these won't make you a badass drifter, but you they will give you better control over your car.
