Turbo tie rods- 67 car

Post by Splitty64 »

Do any turbo tie rods fit a 67 steering rack? most seem to be listed 69 onwards. My current rods are shot and looking to do this as an upgrade whilst I am rebuilding the front end

Yes, elephant racing sells a SWB turbo tie rod set.
The normal set is a tad to short for SWB cars.

You can but it does sod all - you can remove it and not notice any difference.
