Track rod ends
 

Hi just wanted to find out does anyone have any pics of the sierra track rod ends cause I seen some from rally design and seen sierra ones and they have a curve to it and the rally design ones are straight so what are the correct ones and has anyone got a pic I can take a look at please

I think the important thing is that they have the correct taper to suit the sierra upright.

Hi I open that link but it don't show me anything but I am able to get sierra track rod ends and the ones I saw they had a curve and they are for the sierra and I seen some pics of posts from other people and they straight not with the curve and what is the tapper size would you know ?

Where is the curve on the rod end?Are you using sierra uprights?If so go with the sierra track rod ends,maybe take the upright with you to the supplier to try them.There are quite a few aftermarket suppliers of track rod ends so maybe its just different suppliers as to whether its straight or curved.

I don't have a picture to show you but if you type sierra track rod ends on ebay you will see what I mean but if you look at the sierra track rod end the round part with the pin is off to the side and I seen the posts with the pics of others they are straight hope you get what I'm saying

I see what you mean.I dont think it will matter much if they are straight as the steering rack arms will just be on a slight increase in angle to connect to a straight rod end.

Thanks a lot for your help

Sierra ones have an offset (read curved) the RS2000 ones are straight.
Saturn are now suppling standard sierra ones as I believe the tapers aren't right on the RS2000 ones. I have got the sierra ones and they fit the uprights fine.

Thanks mike that helps a lot and I am able to get the sierra ones so that will be ok no need to import the rs2000 ones

The only issue I'm having is finding the drag link ends and the ball joints or equivalent part numbers that will work here in sa and parts that I can get in sa so I might have to import
