    stomp, are you sure? a few people have said that the celica tie rods dont fit real well into the s13 spindles. i already have the celica rack ends and they fit the sprinter rack well and are longer.

    just did this conversion in my car.. woooooot! is all i have to say this rocks. i used RA60 rack ends and Bluebird TRX tierods.. if you dont know what model, mentioning series 3 may help.

    celica tie rod ends have a different taper to the s13 steering knuckle, they'd do the job but make a bit of racket.

    thanks Gilly you're a champ for writing this up.

    my tierod ends look exactly like RA40 ones, but may have had the bluebird joints pressed in maybe!?!?

    anyone clarify this, or give a definate answer as to what tie rods they used?

    yeah maybe i cant remember any more...here it is...like a hundred pages back

    "i just did the conversion...still have to get wheel alighnment and stuff...

    early bluebird tie rod ends

    ra60 rack ends

    s13 lca

    s13 disk with s14 caliper

    s13 coilie

    ae86 camber plate

    the s13 lca kind of fits...u need to grind about 2 mm off each end off the crush tube in the bush....no drama there...and then if its not enough just tap out the xmember a little...it slotted straight in..."

    i also asked for TRX bluebird tie rods, they asked me what year so i just had a stab and said early 80's. ill prob just bring my spindles in and get them to bring out all the bluebird ones they have in stock, should be a max of four.

    I used series 2. I'm pretty sure the guy looked them up and some of the series were the same.
