stronger inner tie rod ends?

[fastivaB6TG25MR]

i was reading up on this because ive gone through 2 sets so far... do any other INNER tie rod ends bolt onto the festiva rack?

any imput would be nice... especially if someone found something stronger... i drag my DD at a 13.2 1/4 at 110ish and tend to break stuff quite regularly...

Is it just the torque steer tearing them up?

[1988festivazoom]

I just went out in the garauge and a festiva is 9 1/4 long and a 323 ps rack is 10.5" u could cut the threads down on the 323 but not sure how much of an improvment it would be? I was gunna mod the 323 rack for my fest to make it easyer to auto x my car in tight turns.

[fastivaB6TG25MR]

im guessing its the hard torque on the launch...

God I hope I don't have that problem later down the road after my swap! But u could pick up a 323 rack and try it. I got mine at a jy for 10$ with ps pump and all the lines.

im not a fan of p/s... added weight and more parts to break...

True I kinda scrapped the idea bc I stopped doing auto x bc I kept going through tires and trannys. Gets expensive.... year before last I was in 3rd in points out of like 15 cars including subys and blew my tranny and didn't finish the season pretty depressing

i know the feeling... popped 2 diffs in 3 weeks... both at the race track

you should go with the b6t tranny, i had mine for about two years beating the crap out of my festiva.im still in my first transmission..

I have been reading alot on how u can break a tranmission without having much power to do so and the only thing that came up is ur engine not being mounted straight,axles r getting stressed out??

[1988festivazoom]

The b6t tranny that I had the option to buy is a awd tranny.... u must mean the xr2 trans correct?

Xr2 or Mazda 323 gt r the same, I had 3 of them.2 xr2 and one gt..it will be worth ur effort.
Hey I might be in Salem sometime thhis coming year.I used to live there a while back and have family there.
