Tie Rods

[L31 Sandman]

It is bent right where the thread ends on the rod, good bend too!:(

quite often they are bowed in the middle..being a solid bar they are easy to straighten...if its bent where you say just buy another but double check it hasnt been bent before and straightened..check for stress cracking...and if its been painted black do not buy it...:Chin:...and for reference they are worth 25 bucks maximum not $75 like someone recently got stung for...

In regards to tie rods , balls joints and other suspension parts seems to be a lot on ebay and variation in prices, any reccommendation as to best quality/prices?? are the items supplied by Rares as good as you will get in regards price and quality, I imagine these are all manufactured in China etc.

99.9% of our hard suspension parts are Roadsafe brand, where roadsafe get them from im not sure, i beleive alot of there parts are 555 parts rebranded but im not certain of that. some stuff is also wasp brand.

our suspension rubbers can be a mix or ours or mackay depending on the part and its popularity
