Am in need of a source for NOS or aftermarket tie rod ends for a 1940 Buick LTD (series 90). The OEM/NOS ends have the zerk on the side, and the manual states these HAVE to go to the rear, so as not to interfere w/ the steering. The aftermarket parts may have the zerk on the bottom, which is not a problem. If you know of a source, any help would be appreciated. Mike in Colorado
Hopefully, someone that knows; will come along , soon. Welcome! Is, that your Limited? Very nice! (Dad, had a '40 Cadillac 72. I always thought; the '40 Limited, is much cooler than '40 Cadillac) Last night; I went looking for a picture of a '40 Limited. I found that same picture (a perfect specimen) and posted it here; http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=228556 (see post #14)
If you have an original one than you can use it to get all the dimensions. Someone may be able to find a replacement based on those dimensions.
