Track-drag link lengths

Neildisco300 · Feb 11, 2014

Morning all, I have had a wee look about for this info but have not found the right info I am after.

Can some one tell me the correct length of both the track and drag link between the centre of the ball joint threads.

Also is this the same for standard as well as heavy duty rods?

thats because length for track rod is set by putting wheels in the correct track whether std or heavy duty bars used ,and not a set lenght,and drag link with road wheels straight when steering box is central ,i should go and get it set correctly

I am planning on getting the tracking done. This is to get it as close as I can to get the vehicle to the mot station.

I will be locking the steering box in the straight ahead position using the locating/locking point before I fit the rods.
