Hi ya folks.

Horizon have got my car for it's MOT, but they need to get hold of the above.

Power haven't got any, does anyone know of an alternative supplier please.

Thanks
Russ

Demon Tweaks. Expensive but they normally have all sizes.

Alternatively Google for a rod-end supplier. I'm sure there are lots of volume sales people that could undercut DT.

Got me thinking about it now... what are they off? A lot of kit car manufacturers use Transit track rod ends because they're bullet proof and cheap. Light weight racers use normal rod ends (also known by the trade name "Rose joints".

Might be worth taking one to a Ford Commercial parts place to see if they are from a Transit.

Pretty sure Silverstone Performance supplied my last ones. Give them a call.

yes and I am sure the ends are too, but see if you can get the old ones to a motor factor to match them up.

Oh, excellent.

I've been having to take the van home from work, and the missus keeps collaring me to go and pick stuff up from B & Q

I must get rid of that van.
