Escort track-rods

Does anyone know of a supplier of track-rods to fit a MKII Escort rack? Ford don't do them anymore.

Somewhere like Cafco might do them, although it might be cheaper just to get a whole new rack.

I got some sierra ones 2 days ago from here, arrived today I see escort track rods listed too. Just go to steering components section.

The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

Sorry guys. It's the whole of the track-rods that I was after. GTS and MNR look just to be lising the track-rod ends. Kinda foolishly hacksawed mine before confirming that replacements were available. Cheers though.

Recon complete racks are easily availabe for about £20 with a £20 surcharge





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Got the current one from Auto Recycle in Northumberland for £20. That's the only one I've seen locally at the scrappers. Prolly go for recon. Mark, is there anyone you can recommend?

Can't find the catalogue at the moment but I'm sure Burton power do them, about £7 each if memory serves.

Track rods, that is.

Just about any decent motor factors in the country should have in stock/able to order within 24 hours
