Rear track rods siezed

[Big Iain]

Anyone else had issues with this?

Fitted KW's but can't adjust the rear toe angle because of this. Are there any aftermarket options or am I going the gold plated Renault route?

cheers

Surely a bit heat would remedy this Iain?

Dont forget that there are left hand threads at one end on these

White hot Ali, wouldn't budge.

I'll give you a call after work Simon, cheers

Any time Iain,

Had the same. Heat didn't help much unfortunately as the Aluminium they are made of (if I remember correctly) was just too soft.

Gold plated option FTW!

Well not all bad, I took the whole assembly off to play with on a bench and attempt to free them off. Passenger side didnt work and the adjusting bolt shesared in the long rod/bar, new adjusters for both sides from Reno 90 quid [smilie=icon_eek.gif] .
