anyone know where to buy a new center tie rod or whatever it is called? i wanted to replace mine last year and couldn't find one for sale. maybe I just don't know the proper name so i can't find one. the piece 87scotty posted

I bought a 1inch one at Napa seems a lot nicer heavier than the one that was on it 50$ or so and left outer is the big bar I do belive I just bought everything though replace both tie rods and the adjusting sleeve

Up to you I think advanced carrys the 30$ bar but if it was mine I'd replace with the one in the link just because the cheap ones bend so easily

This idea has rolled around in my head over the last week or so, as well. Would like more info on the subject :)

That makes sense, hollow tube vs solid. Maybe in the spring i will do it.

I would need:
1. Left (bar assembly)
2. Adjuster
3. New right side?

Right? Or is my current right side still useable with that bar?
