    Rear Tie Rod's for 03/04 Cobras... Who's done the mod?

    I'm told my left rear tie rod is faulty and needs replacing. Who has upgraded their tie rods? I went to Maximum Motorsports to find this how-to on their tie-rod... any thoughts?

    Stronger than stock, and allows for Bumpsteer adjustment.

    If you have the cash to upgrade might as well get them done. It's on my list when I rebuild my IRS in the near future.

    I need to go through the IRS on mine as well. If you do yours first, give me a call and I'll come help plus take pics

    Looking at doing either the KMember or the IRS rebuild next.


    Or just selling it for a Raptor

    I noticed my drivers side ti-rod on the IRS is tweaked when I was installing it yesterday, looks like I'll be doing these soon...not sure if I'll get the $250 kit or just the ti-rods though, hmph.

    I think I'm going to be ordering the kit from ftbr instead of mm, I need to get a set in before this friday when I've got my alignment appointment.



    these are $159 and comparable to the $250 kit from MM from what I can tell...

    Would be nice to put the IRS bushing kit from FTBR on my list but, not sure it's gonna happen this go 'round. Maybe we can get RonDogg to start a new thread.

    It's sitting in my garage right now. I got stuck working from home for the majority of this past weekend.
