Male threaded track rod ends
mutleylocost - 4/5/10 at 05:55 PM

Anyone know of a track rod end with a male thread (if poss. m14 x 2 same as rack) that will fit into cortina hub / steering arm.
Need to extend drumsticks and want to use a bit of aluminium hexagonal bar with a thread thru it
Cheers

Wouldnt it just be easier to do it the normal way???

Whereabouts in Kent are you ?

Hi, only need to extend by about 60mm and thought it may be an easier option.
Am in Maidstone.

m14 male rose joints can be used. not sure what work needs done on the upright though... think they need the taper drilled out or something, and a 14mm high tensile bolt put though with big thick wshers either side of the rose joint

The taper Ford used is pretty uncommon on track rod ends I am pretty sure no male M14x2 TRE exists with the same taper otherwise somebody would have used it and shared the info.
