denton tie rod ?

[flattrack450]

just got a set of denton +2 arms and tcs shocks. install went great til i got to the the tie rods. the new rods are larger/different thread... and won't take to the stock steering knuckle or end joints. am i missing something here or do i have to get new joints? if so, where do i get them?

Are you sure you werent trying to put the wrong tie rod end on the wrong tie rod?

yeah, this reverse thread crap can get confusing, but i tried every possible combo. first realized the problem when i tried to fit the stock lock nuts on the new tie rods, then realized the rods didn't fit the joints either...

you know i'm headed to the garage to try again though!!!

problem solved. spent some time with parts washer fluid and chased the threads back with a tap. cleaned things right up. finished the install earlier tonight.
