    RTC Damper and Tie Rod end kit install

    I got the above on eBay and I'm looking for any advice on fitting these myself.

    The RTC shouldn't be too much trouble but keen on advice on how to set it up to centre correctly.

    The tie rod end kit has three ends and a rebuilt kit for the power steering box (pitman arm?). Any and all advice here would be gratefully accepted including the tools required.

    Cheers

    Neil.

    Hi neil,
    Fitted RTC to my RRC90. Best move ever. Mine had very little castor action and no self centering half a wheel turn either side of centre .
    The RTC is really easy to fit - Because the spring is on compression turning right and on elongation turning left (or vice verse) it kind of finds its own centre. In short get the tracking done after you fit the track rod, then fit the RTC but leave it interference tight on the spring collar. Turn the steering wheel lock to lock (wheels off ground), tighten the allen screws, test drive. If it pulls to one side loosen a biy and tap with mallet in the direction required. May take a few goes to tweek but dead easy.

    Chris
