Tie rod manufacturer
My outer tie rods are completely gone on my CD7. Any idea who the OE manufacturer is on those parts? Honda charges a lot for those and if I could find the OE manufacturer it would save me some money. Thanks!

Re: Tie rod manufacturer
Not sure who the OEM is, and possibly may not be available stateside.
Majestic Honda lists them for $35. Rock Auto; Moog are $25, and Raybestos are $13.
One of the funky things about even when you find the OEM supplier, the component may not be exactly like the component they provide to Honda. There is a Tier system, Honda may require certain specs to be kept, and this may bump the price up because from Honda you are getting the OEM spec'd part. But from the OEM directly they may sell the part that is not exactly the same. It can get goofy when it comes to rubber bushing durometer.
