Subject:'91 Westy (r) tie rod order
From:Bob Stevens
Date:Sun, 23 Dec 2001 00:28:34 +0000

Just ordered the right outer tie rod end for my Westy
from Ron. They don't list an inner rod in his catalog.
Does anyone know if it is necessary to replace them both.
I went to have my front end aligned today and they
showed me irrefutable evidence of the need to replace
the tie rod. Right wheel moves almost an inch at the
tread point and I could see the rod end joint slop. They
recommended replacing both inner and outer. Any comments?
