914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Tie Rod Ends

Posted by: JJ914 Apr 25 2010, 01:48 PM

I got some tie rod ends from AA last year and just around to putting them on today. Got the old one off and tried to install new one. Seems that the new ones threads are cut reversed, so they will not screw in my track arm. Looked at pictures of other ends on AA and Pelican and they seem to go the right way. Am I missing something here. Anybody in Augusta GA have one I can get tomorrow.

tie rods should be the same thread pitch for both sides right hand threads meaning that they screw in clockwise. There are identical tie rods that screw in counter clockwise

OK, the ones that are on my car screw in clockwise, the new ones would be the counterclock wise ones, want work. So my car should have the correct track arms? I talked to Charlie there today, he was going to look at the ones on the shelf and see which way they screwed in before he shipped them. Thanks for the help George.
