GQ GU tie rod ends

Post by steel »

My local parts supplier has only a listing for 93 on, will they fit my 2000 coilcab?
Nissan dealer quoted $168.00 each, a bit steep I thought, for my truck.

GQ tie rod ends won't fit properly onto GUs. It'll be fine for a week or so then steering will wander due to different taper in GUs. From memory I paid $125 each for genuine Nissan GU ends, but that's in Melbourne from Mal Leslie.

Taper is different from GQ to GU so we taper ream out the GU's so they take the bigger GQ tierods. ;)

You can get them from any parts joint (Repco, Bursons, supercheap ect) the aftermarket type used under hard conditions should last you around 6 months if you are lucky (thats what our testing showed us) and a gen one alot longer.
Gen Nissan ones around $100ea
