which sierra - Tie rods/drumsticks
aka Keith - 4/5/16 at 12:56 PM

Needs to replace the tie rods, not the tie rod ends, but which sierra can I use for ordering of the parts.

Believe it to be a Sierra non power rack - or are all the tie rods interchangeable?

How do I work out which sierra rack it is?

cheers

Not sure if the power racks are the same, but my donor was a 1990 1.8 CVH which didn't have power steering. None of the CVH cars of this age did.

Thanks Stu, the challenge is working out which rack I have as I believe some of the drumsticks are different lengths (eg the 4x4 cosworth has different length drumsticks from the 2wd) and I have no idea where the measurement is taken from.

so I would like to try and identify the rack, then I can get the drumsticks to fit - so any tips on how to identify which model sierra rack I have.

It is definitely not a power rack, but what else can I use to identify where it came from?

Cheers

You are welcome to have a look at mine or check measurements to compare if that helps.
