Just wondering if anybody knows something about this tie rods.

Bought a set the other day for my race car and they're laying on my workbench right now awaiting installation. They appear to be well designed and the sellers up in Sacramento are very nice to work with. Couldn't get enough castor using the typical TC compression rod kit, so thought I'd give this a shot.

Mark, Just out of curiosity, can you see what brand of rod end bearings they come with?

Thanks, Tom

Tom, the stamping is "FK RSML10T USA", if that means anything to you.

That's a good quality bearing. Sells for about $24 here: http://www.stockcarproducts.com/rodend5.htm
