Post by: ro284 on March 19, 2005, 05:26:28 PM
My rubbers have perished on the Track Rod Ends, is it possible to get new rubbers? anyone know? there is no wear in the joints yet, but m.o.t. coming up! will i have to replace the swivel joints, and are they expensive? any help or advice gratefully recieved.
cheers Bob

Hi Bob,

Even though l am sure you can\'t change the rubbers anyway, l wouldn\'t expect a joint with a split rubber to last long as the damage is probably already done with water washing the grease out and road grit n gime contaminating them.

Replacement joints should be quite cheap anyway.
