Hey Guys,
I've got a 88 hilux and I hit a stump the other day and bent my tie rod and now it hits the damper at some points. It's pretty noticeable just wondering what's my best option.
Cheers

Re: Bent Tie Rod
Replace it, unless you're confident to straighten it and brace it, once they bend they permanantly weaken- like bent cardboard.
Re: Bent Tie Rod
I replaced mine with one from Locktup. 80 series rod ends and a beefy tie rod. Was under $300 from memory.
Not sure what your budget is but the wreckers will charge you betwwen 50 and 100 for a second hand one that will still be weak and prone to bending
