needsprings 3 Report post Posted June 16, 2016 Wof man says both outer tie-rods need replacing so it is then.Where's the best place to source quality tie-rods in NZ, probably going steer well clear of supercheap products. And hoping to not pay the stealership more than their worth. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gjm 3258 Report post Posted June 17, 2016 BNT would probably be able to help (but I seem to recall they are related to SCA or Repco?) MillAnd in Dunedin are good. Lots of stock typically of better German quality (although OEM), good prices and fast delivery. Initial contact via their website - http://milland.co.nz/index.php - is a webform rather than phone call, but they do respond. And you will get a phone number from them.
