Tie rod end threads
I want to make some solid adjusters for the tie rods. Does anyone know the thread on the end of the tie rods? Thanks for any help.

Re: Tie rod end threads
Make sure you have plenty of thread engagement on both sides. The replacement moog tie rods seem to be longer than OEM which can prevent you from adjusting them where you need them. Or, trim off a bit off each end rod.

IMHO, for street use steel would be better. If it is a drag only car then aluminum is fine.
Also, unless you have the taps and such, it may be cheaper to just purchase a set from a place such as Coleman racing.
