Re: 56 frame/running gear advice "I gotta ask Mongo...
Hi Mongo, I just gotta ask..... What is wrong with that type of tie rod end? I've been looking hard at mine as I don't know how old they are. I recently had the original fan blade come apart on the freeway, (at 9pm, it was an attention getter!) which has me thinking a lot about metal fatigue in a 60 year old truck. I was thinking this is one of the worst items to have fail while going 50mph. (Any speed really...) The one you pointed out looks very similar to mine. Can you expand on that comment? Is there a better style of tie rod end that would be better? Thanks, -Steve
