Thread: Tie rod ends

Hi mate, firstly we are very particular what parts we offer for sale as we don't need come backs and warranty claims. Those tie rods we have been selling for many years with out issues and I have been confident to offer them to forum members and have sold them to forum members over the years, we also sell more expensive ones but usually the more expensive ones are not greaseable they are sealed for life. We find that customers for some reason prefer ones with grease nipples and want to pay little.,
Cheers, Mario

If freight is an issue I'll be in Bangkok in April, and I live five minutes from Mario. Aulro Courier Service at it's finest.

That's very good of you, johntins! Freight is expensive, but it just has to be spread across each part, so then not so bad.

The other thing is: I would hate for you to get stopped at the Airport in Bangkok, as they have clamped up on many things the last couple of years, and most bags are now x-rayed on arrival.


Thanks again for your offer. Cheers

Yep. I fitted a set of them a couple of years ago. No problems with them at all - in fact, I've never had a problem with anything from Mario and Heather!

Surely they allow auto parts if declared? However, like you, I do not wish to fall foul of Thai Customs.... If it turns out that it's OK, and you want them, I'll bring 'em. I travel light to Thailand, so baggage weight isn't an issue. You would just need to get to Sukhumvit Rd. Or Kanchanburi.

I live in Sukhumvit 48. Are you going to the Anzac Day parade?

I have set on my Disco, I think, for about 18 months or so. Look the goods to me, I have had no problems.

Cheers,
Tom.
