#1
Does anyone have a spare Track Rod End they want to sell, or know what x-ref part this is and where to get it?

Ayup matey,

I think they are the same as a Triumph Herald if I remember right, you should be able to pick one up from any motor factors.

Paul,

if you get stuck, I got mine off Ebay really cheap, and it turned out the seller was SOC
in Headcorn, Kent, who used to supply DMUK back in the days......

They were less then a tenner the pair with postage IIRC. Might still have the part number
kicking around somewhere......... I'm sure I kept it for reference......... but if you ring SOC
(they might be called summat else now tho - but Dan Shane will know for deffo), and ask
for DeLorean track rod ends they'll know what you want Smile

Hope this helps mate,

As you all know, you have to cut the triumph ones, so that they aren't too long. There is a cross ref out there that are the same size + shape as the originals. They are for early 80's Rovers part number FTR4054.

Hi, I replaced the track rod ends with a pair off a Austin Metro (1983), off the shelf from any motor factors and £6.99 the pair. May help someone changing the track rod ends in the future! :wink:

Thats a great cross reference. Thanks! Big Grin

I have took the liberty of adding it to our cross reference section and crediting you.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.
