I've searched and searched but can't figure out what makes turbo tie rods a better choice over stock. Can someone enlighten me to the benefits of installing them?

more sensitive steering, reacts more quickly. they replace rubber suspended inner and outer tie rod ends. It is a good "upgrade"
One thing that everyone should consider if they seem to have play in their steering, is to check the steering shaft coupler inside the car at the firewall. They often loosen (the nuts and bolts) causing play. Too many think it a worn rack or bad tie rod ends. I cannot tell you how many of these couplers we have tightened after owners for years dealt with steering wheel play! |
