These high quality tie-rods have been fully CNC machined to the original dimensions and thread sizes which make them completely interchangeable with any Lotus Elan steering rack. Unlike our competitors, we choose not to zinc plate and passivate the tie-rods entirely so as to offer corrosion resistance. Installing a zinc plated ball into a hardened retaining cup is going to instantantly contaminate the ball joint with unwanted zinc material. The correct choice of corrosion protection for the tie-rod, is to apply epoxy paint to the exposed shaft section only.
Diameter of the ball is 1.040 inches (26.41mm) and length from tip to underside of the ball is 4.88 inches (124.00mm)
Overall design length is 6.520 inches (165mm aproximately)
Detail for tie-rod end is 1/2 UNF x 20 TPI and the thread length is 2.0 inches (50.8mm)
The reference part number for the Lotus Elan tie-rod is LM-026H0005-6
Material is 4140 high tensile steel alloy, and the ball is heat-treated to produce a high quality component.
There is a tapered transition from the threaded section to shank that eliminates stress failure.
There is an additional groove on the tie-rod that prevents the rubber gaiter from moving when fastened.
