hey everyone....I previously posted a thread about having to replace the tie rods on my 2003 Honda Civic EX coupe because I purchased replacement tie rods from Detroit Axle that were total junk. I had the tie rods replaced yesterday and the banging and thumping noise I was hearing with the bad parts from Detroit Axle is gone. I've taken photos of the parts that were removed...and I'll be posting them so all can see what poor quality they are and how bad they had held up after only being on the car for 2 years. Bottom line...if you want JUNK....detroit axle is you supplier....but who wants junk??

 

I would have added this to the original.

 

Thanks! was lucky to be able to post the 2nd post at all....have had difficulty navigating this site. I'm just glad the 2nd post has shown up and I hope it will help others when making choices..
