Help needed Track rods and top mounts

[Daymo]

the top disk goes on passenger side, and the bottom disk goes on the drivers side mate, hope that helps

disc's :- top one on the left bottom on the right iirc

if the rod end screws on alright and fits ok to the hub then i can't see there being a problem, surely being shorter it just means you ain't got as much adjustment?

No the track rod ends are wrong mate if they are shorter then when you put them on, your wheel will
be toeing out far to much and you will wear your tyres out in no time not to mention lack of grip handling to pot car pulling.

Crapy drawing ive done to help you. Its as if you are looking from the sky down at the wheel. the wheel and drive shaft are in black the track rod is in red the right length track rod is at the top the short one at the bottom. Top is correct

**** mate thats why i tend to buy most thing genuine because these places have such a big varity of stock and different options they do seem to give out the wrong parts alot

 

[Big_daddy]

yeh i should have, just that it takes 3 days for it 2 arrive from seat as i needed it asap, they better exchange my items!

 

[MIkey kc]

thats not true mate if you order before 2pm the part will be there the next day if its not on back order then its 5 days, most seat vw and audi places say 3 days just to be safe and so they can sort the stock out but everything does comes next day, just so you know for the future, so now when you order from them you can say "oh and that will be in tomorrow wont it" and they cant say no lol

ive ordered stuff before from local seat collier dealers (eg strut brace, turbo gaskets), the earlist i got parts is in 2 days but normal 3 workin days.

fair enough mate i worked for seat for four years as a tech and i know you can get parts next day, just though id let you know
