Just checked in with the garage the tyres are in stock ready for 1.30pm Wednesday. Since they offered a free alignment check thought I would get the track rod ends fitted, would be rude not too...

Previous poor repair, not even sealed from the elements and very loose, glad I decided to replace them as it wouldn't have lasted much longer.🙄

I have kept one of the old ones to see if I can match it with another cars track rod hopefully find an aftermarket source that would be useful for other RA6-RA9 owners, any questions just ask 👍

Nice job, and the proper Honda stuff too 🙂

Good thinking though on the freebie alignment check !!    BUT will they charge to actually adjust it ...????

Get them to check figures, get out of adjustment figure , fix yourself !!

Your van is going to be like a new one by the time you are finished !!

Happy to pay them to adjust if needed, hence why I decided to replace them, already told them I will replace them first, they sounded shocked 😆 as its a different garage, my local ATS is not open 😞 opted for the FREE brake check too just for fun. 😋

I was hoping to get the upper arm dust covers done at the same time but my ball joint grease hasn't arrived, amongst other things 😑

Surprised you haven't got your own tracking kit Stu? Most places seem to charge about £35-40 to adjust the tracking, do that twice and it pays for :

With a fleet the size of yours it would make sense plus you could then add another service to your list of options for customers! ;):D
