A week or so ago I fitted two new track rod ends to my car. The previous ones had the top nut work loose and damage the threads so they couldn’t be tightened. I have done about 250 miles on the new ones, and both track rod ends have just failed the MOT on loose nuts. The nuts were definitely as right as they could be when fitted. The suggestion made by the garage was either the parts I’m fitting have the taper made wrong, or my hubs have a worn taper.
Can anyone advise on what size the taper should be so I can compare to what I’ve got?
Thanks.
