I have a 1960 MGA. I am working on the front suspension. After removing the tie rod ends, I held the inner tie rods horizontal and let go, they fell straight down with no resistance. I thought there should be some resistance to them and that they should basically hold horizontal (but with free motion all around when moved by hand). Is this correct. If not how do I go about adjusting them. Is it a "simple" tightening of the acorn nut like an MGB, or is it more involved. The ball joint connection to the rack certainly looks a little different than an MGB. -- Robert Guinness _______________________________________________ Mgs@autox.team.net Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Suggested annual donation $12.75 Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/mgs-archive@autox.team.net |
