TIE ROD HELP NEEDED!!!!!

Post by aussie_male1au »

Yup, asking for help as have no friggen idea. Ordered tie ends for the MK and when I got two right ends, went back in and they gave me the left hand...so far so good. HOWEVER... the photos should show it all.

As you can see from the 1st two photos, looks like the tie end needs to be almost a mtr long.

Well, the 3rd photo shows what I got and as you can see, no way that will work.
Am needing feedback on what they've supplied me. Is there any difference between the MQ and the MK models (pics in the manuel look different though the confusing thing is on both the MQ and MK there is a bolt hole for the draglink Or have they supplied me GQ tie ends. In saying that, obviously I have two tie ends that I can't use so if anyone is interested in them just send a PM.

If you take it back to were you got it from and explain that you need longer ones, they should beable to find you the right ones and refund you for the ones you cant use.

I would, BUT, like a numptie when I removed the split pins (which fell apart) and when I found out the replacements were wrong, had to open the packets to get the split pins to use. Will try it however as they don't look "unused" due the greasy fingerprints (and the ruddy big hole in the plastic wrapping) not holding my hopes up. Just looking at as a learning tool...part suppliers don't ALWAYS know the right answers :lol:
