Tie rod left=right for Porsche 911 Turbo '75-'89

The joints on tie rods are subject to wear, which usually starts with a cracked sleeve. Once the grease is washed out of the axial joint or tie rod end, the ball joint will fail within a few thousand kilometres. Defective rubber sleeves or rod ends will be rejected by the car inspection at the latest. Since replacing part of the tie rod always requires a new wheel alignment with toe-in adjustment, it is advisable to replace the tie rod as a whole.
