Senor PuffPuff Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 I'm trying to find some decent aftermarket tie-rods for my '01 Impala, but I can't find any on the internet. I can't even find out if they ARE called rear tie rods... Anyways, they're tie rods and they're definitely on the back of the car so if someone can please tell me if they go by another name I'd really appreciate it because if I'm looking for something that doesn't exist then maybe that's why the aftermarket versions don't exist Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertISaar Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 sounds like you're looking for the lateral links. they go outwards from the center of the car, should be two per side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 either the lateral links or trailing arms. If trailing arms, get dorman brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor PuffPuff Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Yes, they go from near the centre of the car to the inside of the wheel but as far as I can remember there's only one per side on the back... They're exactly like tie rods with the threads for adjusting camber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 4 of them. you can get the bushings at any parts store. AZ Part # FB_719 you need 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
