    Yes they are terrible!! Even the spl and gktech ones will where out twice as fast as stock ones!
    If you want some half decent non stock ones then the hardrace forged bump steer tie rods are good. Been running them for 2 months.

    Thanks for the reply mate.
    Ive chosen to go with standard S14 rod ends on the aftermarket tie rods which should sort it out!

    Will post again if they break :smash:

    If you run any type of rosejointed arm on a car used on road will wear out very quick in comparison to a 'standard' balljoint. If you want to run rosejoints on the road best thing for protection is the rubber dustboots and pack them with multipurpose grease.

    Yeah they dont seem worth the risk anymore, just going to use standard rod ends on uprated tie rods! Thanks for the reply :thumbs:
