    Steering rack tie rods

    Are these the same for all Galant/Legnum models? Seen plenty advertised for 2.5 V6... will these fit a VR4?

    Thanks.
    Too much is just enough.

    I've often bought stuff for the 2wd v6 and it fits fine. The rack itself is differentbut the rack ends to the track rod end all seem be interchangeable.

    track rod ends do fit both cars. i had reasonably new track rod ends on the V6 and had them put on the VR4 since i didnt know how old they were. apparently there is a difference between the saloon and estate though but im not sure the source of that information is super reliable

    easy way to find out is cross reference at a part supplier with a reg no. for a VR4 and a V6 to compare the part numbers. use Y949 RSA as a FL V6 reference if you like
