I think they are the same as the Bluebird... I saw it on one of the forums. I'll see if I can hunt it down for you

cheers for the reply, i checked on FAST and the s12 was the only car to have them rod ends, i saw a pic of bluebird turbo ones, and they are different.

i have found a site for spares, ill post below and in the links forums, dunno what the prices are like in comparison, but they are available.

I got mine by registering a request somewhere similar to that Japart site. Got a call from somewhere that had one in stock and got it delivered reasonably quickly. As a guide, I think mine was about £40

If it helps my local guys can get them for £30.35 each

the rods are the same as the 910BB i think, i managed to find one on ebay for £5 and the other side from a motor factors for about £20

Yeh I have a spare one for my 910 and they look remarkable similar.

I've just upgraded my 85 s12 by putting Powersteering on her. Have replaced both both my track rod ends as part of the job. Nissan wanted about £50 & a 3 - 4 week wait. Not good considering its an MOT failure item, which I did mention to them.
A place called Motaquip, based down here nr Portsmouth was able to trace a pair for me from Blueprint. £32 each + the old VAT thing. they had them in next day.

Part No: ADN18714 LH side
ADN18736 RH side

Hope this is of help

cheers for the reply, that link i put in one of my posts are cheaper than that, dunno if that is inc VAT, but still max it will be is 24 quid plus VAT and delivery.

they seem quite good too.

shame they dont stock front wings

Is that a copy part though as ADL/Blueprint are Nissan parts in different boxes!
