Griff track rod ends

[k77-widow maker]

Panic!!!

Anyone know where the Griff's track rod ends come from? (meaning vehicle...not TVR part dept's!!!)
I've been given Mk3 escort TRE's and they don't fit.

Any suggesions?

Unfortunately,im no longer able to send these out.However,it was a tvr part list and not an alternative parts list,so it doesnt list the original manufacturer,just tvr's own part number.

I recently tried to get one from Waldonway. I was told they are TVR only as they (Waldonway) have to get them from the factory and can't source them locally, as they do a lot of other parts.
Mine's a Griff 500 with PAS, BTW.

I fitted "Track Rod Ends: Lockheed AP part No TA687" sourced thro local motor factor. 94 4.3 Chim not PAS.

Sorry would have told you earlier bu took a while to spot in my pop-up notes and assumed someone else would have had this info :-)

HTH, Dave

I did a search using spends part no. and found

www.httpjoctecwebfutureeasyspace.com/parts_list.htm

Do a search for TA687 on that page and it states that it's a MK 2 Escort item. Take yours along to a local motor factor and see if it matches.

Or if you can't be arsed I'm going to do the same this week sometime so wait for my reply

Give Doug' a call, at least you'll be confident that you've gto the right part.
