Track rod issue any help would be great

[Lamby77]

Needing to replace track rods and ends I’ve searched and found quite a few online but can’t match anything up........ was told to look at the back of the engine?? Can’t find anything any advice please I’d be grateful.

Look at the back of the engine for what?
Track rods are part of the steering system, attached to steering rack.

Get the rods from Renault and the Lemforder ends from Euro Car Parts.

What car firstly?

If a 182, the lemforder track rod ends from euro car parts are good and normally have a deal on. Here is the part numbers for both.

I did read that the inner lemforder ones are short. Unfortunately no dimensions are on there website to check but im sure someone will clarify. RPD have them on offer atm though.

The OEM tie rods are about 320mm, if you wanted to use aftermarket parts.

Thats what I have and will buy the gen ones. I'm sure I read the lemforder ones are 260mm from past research.

Not sure who makes the OEM ones.

Could be TRW but I'm not sure.

Renault ones are good for the price. It's all I use and they seem to last.

Agreed mate. In fact, that's what I'll be buying this week.

Lemforder for the ends are fine though and a cheap alternative.

Yeah, the Renault ends are a bit pricey.

I assume someone asking to look at the back of the engine was asking what steering rack was on it as the smi sticker faces you when you look down under the manifold from memory
