Danbob99 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hey guys, I've searched extensively, but not been able to find any affirmitive results on this. I recently swapped over some Impreza knuckles, brakes, hubs etc. onto my 89 GL, wich I had previoulsy done a 5-lug swap on, using XT6 front end stuff. After getting it all assembled my toe is waaay out. So, I cranked it in, but at the limit of adjustment, i've still got another 1/2" to go on either side. Thus, I need to find some shorter outer Tie-Rod ends. Whats in there now i'm pretty sure are XT6 ends wich measure 6" exactly from the outer end of the ball joint to the inner end, not including the stop nut. Any one know which ends might be shorter? Mind making a few quick measurments for me? Thanks! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
