Hi all i have a quick question with regards to replacing the track rod end- ball joint and that is today i picked up the bits i needed to replace my track rod ends and my crossrod end. now the question is do i need two left hand or two right hand ball joint assemblys, as i have been given two right hand and one left. The landy is a right hand drive many thanks in advance.

One left and one right , that way you can adjust the tracking :D . be a bit ****e to try and track up if there was 2 rights or 2 lefts lol :D

befor you take em off , messure the length of the rod from the centres ( underside of the joints ) of the ball joints so when you fit your new ones it will be roughly the same as befor . but you need to get it tracked up to be spot on after tho tbh .

well track rods are one LHT on one RHT ( as you know , just looked on Microcat as i couldnt remember ) and its stating the cross rod ( tie bar/drag link ) is RHT .

So what youve bought is correct :D .
