Weekend Wheel hub Carrier emergency

Post by quest63 »

Hi, My car has eaten its second track rod end in two weeks (Two different part sources and two different mechanics) so I'm having to conclude I have a problem with the hub carrier being worn inside where the track rod end sits.

Any other opinions on this are welcome?

I dont suppose there is some kind of liner I can get to overcome this is there or an oversize track rod end??

In the absence of a simple quick fix where the hell can I get a hub carrier on a Saturday night / Sunday please?

Also is the bearing fitment needing a press to fit it?

Many thanks in advance

Gary
