So the alignment shop that I actually trust sent me away with a 940 wagon unable to be aligned. I suspected as much ahead of time but the reason shocked me...the tie rod ends are completely fused to the tie rods. For grins I pulled the whole tie rod with end attached, put it in the vice and wailed on it with a pipe wrench and it is not going anywhere.
After investigating the options for my Koyo rack it because clear that a rebuild rack from Jorgen was basically only $25 more that two new inner rods so I made the obvious choice. Here is the rub...
I want the MOOG or OEM quality outer rod ends but I am having a hard time verifying the part. Everyone lists the CAM/TRW and the ZF but I only find off-brands listed for the Koyo. Searching the archives leads me to believe that the outer is the same as the Cam/TRW but I would like verification before ordering. Can anyone absolutely swear they are the same?
