Installing SN95 spindles on my 83.. Should I buy the 94/95 outer tie rod ends?
My steering rack is an 03 with the 83 inner tie rods installed.....

Part numbers for the 94/95 outer tie rod ends are different than 93 back..
What has everyone else on here done??

I used my foxbody ones. The difference between foxbody and SN95 tie rods is the threads between the inner and outer, foxbody are SAE threads, SN95 are metric threads. If you use SN95 outers, you need SN95 inners. The SN95 inner/out combination is too long for a foxbody unless you have done SN spindles AND control arms.
