Tie rod

[COS80]

Anybody have a good tie rod tube (steering arm to steering arm) for FZJ80? My wheel alignment has turned into a real debacle. Both bars were completely seized. I got new tie rod ends, but the threads in the tie rod tube are also shot. A new one will either run me $300 or take until November to get here from Japan.

I have used the Marlin kit on a few rigs with good luck, but I see they are out of stock too. GIve @slow95z a shout. He's deep in used parts/rigs and always had things I've needed. Plus he's quick to ship.

I have a few but they aren't cheap to ship because of length. The big guys get such a discount on shipping rates

Local guys may have one; Zac up in Cripple Creek or Old40Dog Dave in Cotopaxi.

Thanks, all. I ordered a new one today. My first trial order with Dave Stedman from Japan4x4.com. Excellent price and service; we'll see how shipping goes.

The tie rod end I ordered from Corwin took nine business days to get to them, but my tie rod from Dave Stedman/japan4x4 took just FOUR, and it cost less than half of the US dealer price. I can't believe the level of service here! He's going to be my first stop for factory parts from now on.

Don't phone too often though, it slows me down.
