VtVette | Front and Rear Tie Rod's the same? | ||
Guru
|
I've been looking around for a replacement rear tie rod end (toe link) for my '93. Came across this on Corvette Central's website: "TIE ROD END - OUTER FRONT OR REAR - 2 REQUIRED". Makes it sound like the front and rear's are the same. Is this correct? My car's not here so I can't even do a quick visual. If anyone can shed some light on this I'd appreciate it thanks.
Also, where are Guru's buying parts online these days? I need rear toe links and a pair of horns for my '93. Thanks! |

As far as I can tell from the moog part number on Rock Auto the outer tie rods are the same:
MOOG Part # ES2908RL More Info Frt Strg; Outer Rr Susp; Outer When I had to replace my horn, I just got one from napa and spliced it in. If I had to do it over again, I'd get one of these wolo horns: http://www.wolo-mfg.com/air.htm Matthew |

If it was me, I would get the Banski kit.
Otherwise, www.rockauto.com. We have a discount code over in Corvette Chat. |

Thanks for all the replies. I'm contemplating the Banski kit right now. The car will go up for winter storage soon so I am not in a big rush. While the Banski kit is overkill for my street driven car a good pair of Moog tie rod's are at least $60/$70 each and although only one is bad I will replace both as I have to re-toe the car at the same time.

sounds like you are a candidate for the GP!!!!
I have my kit... its just not installed yet (I ordered before the GP). I went the distance and ordered the entire thing. After 171k miles, I didn't want to mess around with the old rubber bushings; and all there creaking and binding and clunking. More info later!!! |
