Good or Bad? I understand that not having a sealed grease boot would make it less attractive for street usage, but is there much to gain by using these?

And How about making a set youself out of industrial parts from Grainger?
Perhaps one of these and some threaded pipe of the correct length and thread pitch?

My only concern would be wether or not a tapered bolt would be absolutely required going into the tie rod mount on the knuckle. Perhaps you could drill out the tapered hole in the knuckle and use a larger diameter bolt?

What do you think?

 

Neither. Just unneccessary as hell on most of our H-A chassis'. And it's nothing to trifle with in general terms. If you do anything, you gotta do it right. It's your life you're risking.

The only reason to mess with the tie-rods at all is if you're going to make changes to the bump steer curves. Most people who do mess with this on these cars use tapered hardware. In particular it's common to use an AN thru bolt and machine a tapered compression sleeve. The circle track guys have some tapered hardware that can be useful as well - look at Hoerr's catalog, or search the Corner Carvers site for Mustang bump steer kits to get an idea.

Scott, who made up a bump steer kit for his ITR, but has never dialed it in and installed it...

 

Thanks...I guess you saved my life!

uh....I owe ya one....or something.

 

I would not run these on the street at all.

We con completely out fit you with ballbearing parts. But again I would not use them on the street.

 

I'm sorry - ballbearing rod ends?? Never heard of such a thing - what am I missing?
