    The one I bought for the Disco from Graeme Cooper also required that I bought the correct threaded tie rod as well albeit seperately. No extension required/needed or supplied.

    Phil wins the prize, you need a left hand thread and right hand thread tie rod ends, should of replaced them anyhow, when fitting the new track rod, chuck the adjuster bit away

    DON'T use roadsafe brand, 2 reasons

    1. they fail within a few thousand kilometres,

    2. the threaded are stops well before it should, makeing toe adjustment, impossible, with "modification"

    It's actually Lemförder, a brand of ZF.

    As the others have said, **** off the adjuster and use a 110/130 LH thread one and you are set to go.
