TAKUSHI Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 k ive just finished fitting 5 stud off my black ceffy onto my white and had to fit another set of s14 lca's coz my old ones were bent from crash, after removing old arms i noticed the s14 ones i had purchased wernt quite the same as the ones off my old car, i fit them anyway only to find theres a heap more wheel track and i can adjust more neutral toe into the factory tie rods as the joints nearly fall off, definite no no, anyway around this without using extra lock spacers or changing my whole rack? ive read that s14 tie rods cant be used as the threads are different, but i could be wrong, any help would be smashing cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/291098-issues-with-tie-rods/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
