    Bent tie rod

    The rods are made of cheese. Putting in a stronger one will not hurt anything. Or put a guard over it.

    A good mate was an ex-LRA engineer and when I first bought my old 130 18 years ago he said the first thing to do is either sleeve the existing tie rod and drag link or fit Maxi-Drive HD ones and ditch the ridiculous channel under the diff. There were a number of things like that they couldn't get Solihull to change, despite repeated requests from here.
    The JRA built Perenties ran sleeved tie rods
