tie rods
does anybody know the lengths of the inner and outer tie rods for a 1969 Grand Prix? the technician says it looks like I have four inners, they are all about 8 5/8 inches long, and he says the outer are too long, but the outer Ames lists are about 9 1/8 inches long. thank You for your time

My '72 inners measure 8 3/4", one outer is 9", the other about 9 1/8" or slightly longer. I'm not sure what has been changed though. The couplers are 4" long.

GP Outer Tie Rod Ends are apparently different from the A body cars.
I am discovering the same issue. The GP outer tie rods are vastly different from the (true) A-body cars. which is just about the only significant steering and suspension part that is really different. The Center links and inner tie rods are the same. So is the idler arm, pitman arm, and steering box. The outer tie rod ends for the GP are very expensive(well over 150 each), and I guess I will just have to bite the bullet and buy them. https://www.rareparts.com/RP25500A-2...iac-Grand-Prix OR https://www.kanter.com/products/stee...d5301243390cb7

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
