    Front track rod brand recommendations?

    Can anyone recommend a decent quality brand front track rod? Im thinking I'll have to go genuine but if theres a decent aftermarket brand Im happy to use those. I replaced both sides last year (20,400km ago to be exact) with TRW brand ones and the LHS inner joint is already flogged out and is in need of replacment.

    Maybe Lemförder?
    Their TRE's ball joints, etc have been good on earlier models.

    Is the boot still intact Shane?
    20,000 isn't very good. TRW stuff is usually ok.

    Hopefully Dazz, discorevy and JC can chime in.

    Boots still perfectly fine. Even with the Pilbara roads thrown in 20,000km is **** poor as far as Im concerned.

    Well, just replaced my front track/tie rods this afternoon. Genuine ones used this time, but guess whats etched into the rod - yep TRW. So save yourself some coin and just get the TRW ones over genuine as they are 1/4 the price for the same. Lets see how long this next lot last.......
