Track rod end dimension

Post by Bill_qaz »

Anyone purchased tre from ESM and found it longer than original fitted. From the centre of the ball joint to the locknut abutment face was about 10mm longer. The lock nut had to be screwed to fully inward to maintain track rod length of removed one..

Sorted, cleaned up threads and went on far enough to equalise length difference :tu1:

Got mine from ESM and they are longer and take up all the adjustment. From the centre line of the taper bolt to the end of the thread is 80mm. Has anyone identified any shorter ones?
