I hit a rather large pothole and now my long tie rod is slightly bent. My plan is to get some, put new tie rod ends on em if needed, strengthen them and swap em on the weekend. However my spare set of tie rods is about three hours away near Kilarney and i'm not going near there any time soon so, does anyone have tie rods for a linkpin front end in any condition (even bent) that they don't won't or will sell. I'm in brisbane U2U
me or email as i check daily or more. Thanks Lee:thumb

Get yr self a long rule and lay it along the tie rod this will tell if its bent or not.
