I might have stumbled across source for Tie Rod End Dust Covers Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Wed, 26 Jan 2022 18:40:11 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Both the small conical rubber dust covers for the threaded stub of the Tie Rod End, and the long corrugated dust covers for the ends of the steering rack. If correct, a PAIR of new Tie Rod Ends is around $26 (SAAB pieces are typically $24 to $40 each!), and the small conical dust covers are only $1 for Rubber of $5 for Urethane.
I ordered one pair of the Tie Rod Ends and two of the rubber conical dust covers. My car uses four tie-rod ends and I will be replacing only those on the front. I will install only new dust covers on the existing the rear rod ends. Assuming these are direct replacements.
More to come.......
