all model Sierra rack/track ends, ball joints etc can be bought from Midas, Autoquip, Autozone, Spareslink and most other non franchised motorspares outlets...:confused: Then of course there are the Ford Dealerships to be found basically in every suburb.

Sierras are a dime a dozen at the scrap yards and they practicality give the bits away for next to nothing since nobody drive Sierras anymore and the wrecks are taking up space.

BTW, have you started on your frame yet? My car is built and stripped, chassis off to the sandblast / paint guys on coming Friday and next week I will start to put it together finally. And still I have not steering rack clamps or rack-end connectors...will worry about that when I get there:)

This you will not found in SA, believe me I tried for weeks. I used Cortina Mk 5 uprights in front and the top ball joint that fit is the Transit drag link.
I bought two from Brad at Locost SA as he is importing them - Cost R450 a pair plus postage.
I had the part number - is QH.... will look on the box tomorrow for the part number, but at the end it will cost more to import than to buy from the Locost guy. The ball joint cost about 9 pounds each if im not mistaken (I found them in England when I was searching at the time) but the postage is the killer but still wayyy over the R450 + R70 postage I paid for a pair and the risk of not receiving them:o .

Ya I will contact locost sa and see if he will deal with me cause the last time I asked him about the steering bush kit he said he did not have now I'm not sure he is lying or not cause when I asked him about importing locost parts for haynes he turned me down flat and said he don't do anything for the haynes locost
