[DeTomaso] NPT Shop says I need inner and out tie rod ends??

[Mike Drew]

Doh! 

I can only imagine the the thought process that led to a second ‘cup’ (I don’t know the proper name for it either) being introduced.  The resulting rack was probably pretty frightening. I’m glad you sorted it out!

Funny thing, when I was going through my rack, one side had a single cup for the tie-rod end to press against, the other, which I was told was rebuilt by Hall, had two of the little cups.  Made for an interesting twitch when turning hard....
