Title: WTB Tie Rod Adjusting Sleeves
Post by: kingchief on March 19, 2020, 08:52:57 AM
Anybody have a set of tie rod adjusting sleeves?  I do not know the part number.  I am looking for a nice set NOS or minimum wear or rust. My car is #406.

Thanks for looking!

Yes, I have seen these as they have been online for quite a while now.  Looking for the nuts and bolts actually but want OEM or used nuts and bolts made in USA.

Thanks!

Steve,

Keep an eye out for TRW ES619S, if you can find a vintage NORS set they will be basically identical to original Ford.

Thanks Dave but what is NORS???  I apologize if this is a silly question.  I have been chastised before on this site for asking silly questions!

I appreciate your help.  Went out today for a long cruise with my grandson...LOTS of fun!  He really enjoys the ride...me too!!! :D

Cheers,

Steve

Are they correct for our cars or no?

NORS is a "term" often used to describe new old replacement part.  Which could refer to old aftermarket stock or even Ford service replacement parts thta will serve their purpose yet not have all the features or look like original assembly line or from the era NOS parts

NOS = new old stock = most of the time original Ford

NORS = new old reissued/replacement stock = will work the same as the Ford original part may not have the Ford part number. Could be TRW, Moog or other manufacturer on suspension parts.

Pretty sure your looking for a set of these in pic. All mine are like this with TR marked bolts.
I have seen them on eBay before

Exactly GT350Lad and thank you.  Thanks to all who have responded as this is what I am looking for.  I learn something new every day [now I know what NORS means and thanks!].  Great to know that the "Made in Canada" assembly was not what I needed.  That is why I have not purchased it.  I shall keep looking and hope someone has an extra set or at a minimum the nuts and bolt.

Stay safe all!

I have what I believe are the correct nuts.
Castle type, with slits cut into its sides.
