Hmmm ... good question. I've never had to change the tie rods on any of them (yet). I'll have to check it out.

Also, I don't know if the 'turbo' tie rod upgrade uses the same wrench (yet).

At this point I'm going to say yes, but maybe Krusty will chime in with the truth.

(Why isn't there a curmudgeon smiley)?

Well, in the original post he says that's what the tool is for. What, you think he's just makin' it up? And, FWIW, of course 914 tie rods and 911 tie rods use the same fasteners, they're the SAME part ..................... Whaddya think the "turbo tie rods" originally fit? 914 Turbos"?

These statements are null and void if the seller is a politician.

Krusty enough for you?

Do you have an estimate of when they will be done?
I have turbo tie rods on the shelf and want to put them in soon.

Thanks

I'm hoping I can start shipping them next week but I'm still waiting on confirmation from the supplier.

I'll take one - thanks

Hey Doug, how soon will you have info on the strut insert nut tool? Did you decide to have those made too?

If so, I can wait until you have those ready and can ship both at the same time

So my ad in the classifieds generated a lot of interest so I'm having a bunch more cut out for those interested. I made a special wrench that makes changing out tie rods a breeze. One end fits a stock inner tie rod retaining nut and the other fits the end of a turbo tie rod. No more vice grips, channel locks, big screwdrivers, etc. when converting over. These wrench are laser cut out of steel and will come bare. Cost is $26 shipped conus.

If you responded to the ad in the classifieds then I already have your name on the list. Once I get these wrenches in stock I will PM those interested with payment details.

I was told by one Aussie 914 owner that there were less than 75 914's in Australia. They were never imported there. And you think part for them are hard to find in the U.S.?

We have about 10 in Brisbane including a genuine 916 (still verifying that one)

We are lucky to have this forum and other suppliers to call on but we pay the premium in fossil fuel usage across the Pacific.

Thanks for the help and goodwill

Yes please, I am in for one also, I have a very crude one I made with an angle grinder. I would prefer a nice pretty one.
