Hmmmmm I wonder
I got a slight bend on mine track rod bar ... Do you happen to know if it will fit a new age ?

Not the track rod end that goes on the hub ... But the bar that you turn to do the tracking ... You get me ? ... One end of it goes into the steering rack and the other to the track rod end

Only asking as I got a slight bend on mine

i had some one just before the new year decided to use my n/s as there brakes so i took out the lump dropped it into a sport, with the fmic no need for bonnet scoop so kinda looked like a sport but went like stink. then got it mapped and being stupid running 2 bar ended up with alsorts of trouble clutch, gearbox, front shafts,etc. so in process of having uprated running gear probs just off another turbo, btw red one is my g/f brothers only ever had green scoobs

Nice one fella When you get some news just give me a hollor .

As far as I know its not doing nothing bad to the rest of the motor , In fact its still tracked up as I had to get two new corners on the front so got them to check the tracking as well .

you mean the one that still isn't MOT'd? it's only taken him 4 months to get the headlight fixed
IF he gets round to finding out how much it is it'll probably cost too much anyway might have more luck on the hairdressers car tho
