Default how much is it worth

how much would you guys be willing to spend on new tie rod ends (outer)...

they would be made of stainless steel and would be a little beefier than stock (strength isnt a real problem stock anyways)...the "upgrade" part would be that the joint for the control arm would be more solid and would allow for better steering response and tighter handling....

i will be testing them soon (next few days) and was wondering what the interest would be like...


MODS: I AM NOT SELLING ANYTHING

IF/WHEN THESE BECOME AVAILABLE I OR SOMEONE WILL SIGN UP AS A VENDOR....

thank you...

BTW PICS TOMORROW

Edit making full tie rods now...limited run will be made at first then maybe more later....still not officially for sale.

i say the backs.. because here in michigan (salt-belt winter state) the rears are rusting. it's a pain to do an alignment on the rears without lots of penetrating oil, and when that doesn't work.. have to break out the torch! Yikes!

Toyota didn't care to coat it with anything, something that would laugh at winter and rust sounds good to me! So go with the rears! The fronts are already coated, plated.
