I am installing the turbo tie rods and want to make the attempt at doing it right. So I am looking for someone who has the install wrench and would lend it to me. Or someone with the tool who wants to help help me do it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

you could just go buy a cheap $10 32mm open end wrench...it'll need a little grinding to clear, but not that big of a deal if you have a grinding wheel.....takes about 2 or 3 minutes.... |

You can go to a bicycle shop buy a 32mm open end wrench.
If you get the correct one a little grinding on the opposite end an you can use it for the ball joints Mar7ck |

Looks like the grinding is the leading idea. The one I was looking at in Pelican had the 32mm and a spanner end. But I am no stranger to grinding tools.
