What tie-rod ends should I use? I'm putting 96' spindles on the front of my 1985 Fox and I don't think the stock tie-rods are going to make it. Anyone around here used the 96' spindles....? I know the 94's are used more. [Cool]

i put 95 spindles on my 89 might be a different setup than yours but i used maximum motorsports adjustable tie rods, i dont know if there is a difference, i would give them a call though, very nice pieces.

+1 . . . I too am running 96+ spindles and running the fox body tie rods. I do plan on using the bumpsteer kit from upr I got laying around. Just to be on the safte side, as there are not that many threads that go into the tie rods.
