Tie rod ends

Postby dv8one » Thu Oct 12, 2006 10:14 pm

I have a worn tie rod end on my NA6. have called about 6 places and most of them say you cannot get them new. So far the only way to replace it is second hand and the only way I can get one second hand is to buy the whole rack.

Can anyone give me some direction. I live in Adelaide

What a load of BS!! They are a simple replacement part. They screw onto the rack!!!! Try Mazda if the aftermarket guys can't help - although I know for a fact you can purchase cheap taiwanese ones.
