    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Lifetime warranty until you sit it On something.. I think only warranted against normal bending..

    A bend is a bend I would argue! Surely?

    ABs tie rod reshaped to mould to the back of his front diff. Not sure if he parked on it, reversed back over something or what, regardless I'd be making a claim on that warranty if it did the same thing.

    You bend it we replace it! That means I can put a bottle jack on it and lift the car I expect. Bargain at that price too.

    36mm chromoly tie rod. Lifetime Warranty against Bending. Done deal.

    I'm with you. But it's the same as a programme I was watching tonight On the ABC..
    Went threw how much can we rally trust big business... Coke for example, their vitamin A drinks, has more sugar and less vitamin b1,2,4,5 and iron then a can of mother.. Yet Its called vitamin A..

    I thought I read the same principle about these things.. 100% bend proof, until you hit something..
    36 crome molly, Its going to take a fair hit, but everything can be bent.. Everything... It just depends on how dedicated you are..

    Well decided to use the magic card and purchased a superior tie rod.

    Holy crap their site is quite full on when purchasing goods with procedures but a solid well thought out one to ensure they are covered.

    We turned my existing rod upside down didn't we Darren?

    So the bend faced away from the diff?
