4ws Off Side REAR Track Rod End sources

very useful info and parts sourcing for 4ws Off Side REAR Track Rod Ends etc thanks to multiple people's info and pidda's feedback :thumbup:

After getting messed around by a few companies (amayama, pfkling, fitinparts) who all claimed to have stock of the tie rod ends 53550-SS0-R01 (a suggested alternative to 53550-SS0-J61), and took my money and then refunded days later, I picked up the vectra tie rod end 93186321 (123spareparts.co.uk), and had that fitted along with the rack arm 53020-ss0-000 which I got thanks to vanzep. So far I've not had any issues and the chap that fitted it said it'd be fine.

I also found that moog have a page on their website where you can enter the specifications of the tie rod end you need and they will suggest something that fits - https://www.moog-suspension-parts.com/u ... d_ends.asp I thought this might be useful if the vectra one’s become difficult to find.
