I blame having teenagers in the house, but I cannot remember the size wrenches I will need to swap out/in turbo tie rods.

Anyone remember off hand?

Thanks!

I keep a box of odd wrenches for brakes, suspension and mark them with different colored tape for easy reference. Sorry, on vacation in Florida so I can't check on the tie rods size. They went with me to the auto-cross and track events for years.....fast and easy to adjust for 1/4 inch toe out for auto-cross then back for the ride home. Best, Mark
