XA Falcon Tie Rod Ends Onto
A Mk2
By Jim Peall
The new tie rod set up is XA Falcon and the
Lower one is of a Mk2 consul/zephyr, all I had to do to
make them fit was to ream out the tapered tie rod seats by 0.75 mm (approx) , both falcon and zephyr seats are the same angle.
You will need to use the falcon rod connector, the new
rod end are grease able and at half price and on most spare parts shops is a
option if you can’t get the real thing.
Hope this is a help to someone.
Time to go back to the shed
Jim.
