I currently have these on standby. I'm picking up my DC5R lower control arms and front sway bar. But more then likely, I'll be picking these up. Not too shabby for $300 shipped. Definetly mroe then the factory (complete tie rod assembly with end is $50 and some change a pop).

The picture seems a bit misleading...I wonder if this is for just the tie rod ends or the entire arm assembly + tie rod ends..

Do the EP's have issues with squeaking tie rods?

interesting parts, but i don't think it adresses the angle and bumpsterr issues.

bumpsteer is not a function of tie rod ends. it has to do with the arc created by the tie rod end as it follows the movement of the shock body. if this 2 doesnt have the same arc as it moves up and down, bumpsteer is created.
honda choose to move the steering rack higher due to space consideration but compromised the steering geometry.
