Thanks mate, do you have any idea how much threads/turn will be achieved? Currently have standard length mini ones fitted and they're only on about 5 turns(tracking is currently toeing out)

 

got a welder? http://www.calverst....sic-priorities/

Hiya folks does anyone have a part number for the long Track Rod Ends for a classic mini?

I believe they're from a Herald?

TIA

the longer TRE's give about another 5 threads engagement from memory, and also from memory you want 10 turns minimum,

 

In the past I have used wheel nuts to extend them, as they are the same thread, and already tapered for welding.
