De Ranged Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'm currently away from home with work and I've finally got the custom ground reamer to upgrade the steering balljoints to a much larger toyota version (need to cut a new taper seat into the steering arms) If someone can tell me the length of the standard tie rod on a D1 I'll get the steel for the new tie rod before I go home and machine this at the same time (can't make my mind up between hollow bar 1040 or solid 4130 will depend on price lol) Dimension I'd like is center of balljoint to center of balljoint please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangover Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I can tomorrow for you, going to replace my tie rod ends so it will be easy to run the tape out. Bear in mind the adjustment sleeve on the RH side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De Ranged Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Thats why I'm after the center of the ball joint to the center of the ball joint (the taper pins to the swivel housings) I'm going to make it one piece with a left and right threaded ball joints so the adjustment is done on these threads Would be nice to have this length, as I'll be ordering some other steel tomorrow or tuesday to machine up some wheel scales and possibly some bits for a chassis table.... kinda a bugger staying away with no shed to play in I'm designing new things lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowie69 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'm sure this is in RAVE, but I'm on a Mac, and haven't run it for years, someone with it should be able to tell you. alternatively if you look in the Haynes, or search on here: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=48132 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
