Track rod end fitting

[Ben_SaxoForte]

Going to have a go at fitting some new track rod ends tonight or maybe tommorrow, just wondered if any1 has a good method of getting them in the same position as the old ones, they don't need to be perfect just driveable so I can take it to get the tracking done after if needs be.

Cheers

I dont think you ever will tbh unless you just try and match the thread distance from the one taken off but your not going to be accurate anyway

Before you take the old ones off.
Mark the thread where the track rod end meets with Nail polish or something.

Tip ex is easier to see lol

And count the turns off, and do the same amount on

Will almost always have to go for tracking anyway

thanks, Ill try the tipex then don't have any nail varnish :p it's only got to get me down the road to the garage so does'nt need to be brilliant just driveable.
