Track rods, same for left and right?

[mikekean]

Just wondering if the track rods are the same for both left and right on the 172? I have a drivers side one in the garage but i need to replace the passenger one on my car.

Went to Renault today they are the same for both sides. The rod ends however are sided, bought myself the tool for getting them off aswell which should make life way easier.

Euro car parts doesn't, just three weeks ago I bought a left and right side from ECP.
