Tie Rod End Part Numbers- R32 Gts-t

[dwayne293]

Hi all,

A while back I stumbled across a thread where people had bought front tie rod ends from Pedders for thirty-odd bucks. I am just chasing some part numbers as the stores I have called (in Adelaide) don't reckon such a product exists.

It was also stated that the R32 tie rod ends come in 2 sizes from Pedders. I assume GT-R and maybe GTS-4 must be different from GTS-t and GTS.

I have taken some measurements of my tie rod ends as they don't have a part number stamped into them.

Length from threaded end to centre of knuckle - 100mm

Overall length - 120mm

Apologies for the lack of pictures but I don't have a digital camera.

Pedders part numbers preferred, but any part numbers will be extremely helpful

Cheers

Dwayne

You will have to measure the thread dia.

PTE926.14 - 14mm or PTE926.12 - 12mm

Pedders have them.

I measured mine some time ago and I think they were 14mm.

I questioned the guy in the store as they origionally gave me the 12mm and i needed the 14mm ones...

They are the same part. If u look at em, its just the hole tapped out from 12mm to 14mm...

so you need rack end and steering rod to suit also....?

[Bl4cK32]

errr..no??

The tie rod ends (or rack ends as u are calling it) just need to suit the thread size of the tie rods (rack arms).

I used r33 ones. Longer than the r32 but same thread size...never bothered to measure it tho. Just have to count your turns taking the old ones off and making sure to get a wheel alignmnet Straigt Away !

The tie rod ends (or rack ends as u are calling it)

They are "Rackends" since no skylines have "Tie Rods" :-)

tie rod

n.

1. A metal rod that joins and reinforces parts in a structure.

2. Either of two metal rods or arms that transmit motion to the front axle in certain vehicular steering systems.

last time i looked they did, unless i and most japanese parts makers are mislead...

I have an '93 R33 GTSt and I found Pedders tie rod end length measurements to be a bit out. They initially gave me the PTE926 with 12mm thread but needed the 14mm thread PTE926-14. A great price.

Always get a wheel alignment after replacing steering or suspension parts.
