Hi Buzzn
Lets first start with the part number.

What part number are you using?

and

What is wrong with the ones they do send you?

[BUZZN2]

As far as the part numbers I,m not using mazda part # due to the fact that Mazda USA does not support the car anymore thus wont even try to do a search. They just look at me like I\'m crazzy, I have tried various parts houses, NAPA shows the part in the bood w/a picture looks the same however it shows up and is not like the factory goose neck, its short and at about a 15 deg. angle, Rare Spare does not return calls or e-mails, various other places I have tried and no luck,  I\'m just about at an end of what to do, either a put the old stuff back on and suffer, or try to convert to Hiem joints and just fab the rest...

A few people say 1g rx7 inners can work however they are to short and the taper is larger diameter. There is a guy in the states that found them new however he won\'t tell me where he got them ?? LOL go figure.

this is my last hurtle to finish my car, 4 year build from a shell and 5 parts cars, paint, chrome,many $K.00 later and Im stuck on some $40. worth of parts.:guinness

So what kind of setup are you running on your race car?

[Martiny]

Ah my Avatar is an RX-2 I used to own. The one I have now is a road car only, a restoration project ( actually its just a RESCUE project at the moment!).

I will look up the part number, and I will try Mazda here. They have sourced quite a few parts for me, cheerfully !

[BUZZN2]

Ay help is greatly apriciated  :Thumbsup!

[Martiny]

dude, my (USA) parts list shows:

2133 99 322A SOCKET Assembly qty 2 (inner tie rod end)
2370 99 324   SOCKET assembly qty 2 (outer toe rod end)

Can you try Mazda US with these part numbers? If no joy, I will try and source them here and send them to you,

:-)

i wouldnt bother with the forums, just look up repco or appco on the internet and phone them its alot quicker , also do a search on the nz or aussie google for the part

[Martiny]

Update, please. Do you want me to try my guy at Mazda with those part numbers?

[BUZZN2]

I got an e-mail back from Repco they will sell to me/us directly and ship,
$17.00 each US pluss shipping not a bad price at all so I\'ll ordered 3 sets concidering the shiping was the same.  I hope this helps everyone and thank you all for your input..
