Track rod end
« on: August 21, 2010, 16:57:51 »
Hi, I need to obtain the ball joint that connects the short track rod from nearside wheel to the steering idler lever (RHD car UK).
Anyone know the part number or a cheap source in the uk?
Thanks

Just realised that it depends which way round the tie rod is fitted as to whether the ball joint is a right or left hand thread :-[
What I really need is the nyloc nut which secures the ball joint having somehow cross threaded one. The thread seems to be
finer than normal metric threads.

Why not go to your MB dealer and get it there?
You have an excellent dealer on your doorstep that knows these cars inside out ie  Jacksons of Poole
