Tie rod

[truckdude22]

Can't find any original new tie rods. The tie rod is bent. Only pull offs can be found, besides one group who takes and cuts chromoly tubing. Does anyone have any ideas as to where they could be found, a part number that applies to another vehicle I can find at an auto parts store, or whether the pull off or chromoly would be better? They're the same price.
Thanks

If you can not have the tie rod (professionally) straightened, Use a good take off. No problem there, just give it a thorough check out.

I bought an NOS one that was pretty reasonably priced from either white owl parts in North Carolina or Eastern surplus in Pennsylvania

Thanks!

So stay away from the chromoly build? Will call those two tomorrow. I'd love to find NOS.

There are plenty of places that sell the "tie-rods". Just off the top of my head , "White Owl" , "Eriks" , "Eastern Surplus" , "TMJ" and I know there are others. Just type in the NSN # on Google.

Thanks! Tried a few I had on hand and eBay.
