So I went to my local dealer and he said the non PTO side steering tie rod is not longer being made.... With that in mind it might be nice to find a dealer or someone who knows of an alternative for us Gen II guys...
From what I can tell most of the tie rods are 3/8"-24 tie rods and 7/16"-24 for our sleds. I am referring to the radius rod ends (upper and lower) along with the steering rod ends.
The shop was trying to tell me that the rod length plays a big factor along with how tall the bushing sat etc... I think not. In the 4x4 community, as long as everything matches then your fine. I have a cut off wheel and a bunch of other tools if I needed to cut the threads shorter.
I know they need to be left handed threads... Anyone have a good site they order theirs from? Dealer wants $120 for 3 ends! I know on my Polaris Ranger I can get replacements for next to nothing (12.99/ea).
