Tubular tie rod adjusters
Anybody have any input on the tubular tie rod adjusters with jam nuts? What brand are you using any pros or cons? Sure looks cleaner! Just wondering if I want to spend that much money for em they seem kinda pricey. Thanks

Re: Tubular tie rod adjusters
I have a set from POL (www.performanceonline.com)
Several other companies make them. Check with board member CPPJEFF,... maybe he can get you a deal from CPP. He seems pretty generous right now. |

Re: Tubular tie rod adjusters
I have put the CCP ones on mine but haven't driven it yet. I used similar ones on my last '69 Camaro and they are the only way to go. Because of being a complete round piece, not split like the stock design, there is no flex and hence the steering feels just a little sharper when pushed hard. I also think they are easier to adjust, look better and don't have to deal with those darn clamps, which have been a PITA on past vehicles, when they get rusty.
My .02 worth.

Re: Tubular tie rod adjusters
From an adjustment standpoint they are super smooth and from a visual standpoint there is no second best. These things are not that pricey at all against what a set of original cost. These are made from 6061 T6, order your self a set today! Shoot me an e-mail.

I emailed you about adding these to the shock mounts I'd like to order.

Re: Tubular tie rod adjusters
Not hard to make. We make out of heat treated stainless steel. Any machine shop can make them easily.

Re: Tubular tie rod adjusters
I will sell you these adjusters for $49.00 a set. Thanks for the buisness, and although they are "easy" to make for $49.00 it cannot be worth the time it would take.
