My Rallye has a P2 VTS rack and the track rods fitted straight on. I've read something on here about the threaded bits on the end of the rods being slightly longer or similar, but if there are in fact any differences they are minor, mine fitted no probs. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

The rods themselves were longer onmy ph2 vts rack, than on the 306 rack that came off. I transferred the rods across and fitted standard 306 rod ends. Seems to work. |

The ph2 vts rack got the Same Arms (m14) like the gti6 thats correct. But are they m14 AT the ph1 too? Can somebody tell me the manufacturer of the ph1 rack? Was it Zf or trw? Btw: Can somebody tell me why this carparts sellers are mostly dickheads? |

Btw: Can somebody tell me why this carparts sellers are mostly dickheads? Just checked the FIRSTLINE catalogue and the phase 1 (1997-2000) are the same arms (FTR4416) and track rod ends (FTR4090) as the later car 2000-2005 and are m14 x 1.5 thread. The 306 track rod ends are the same (FTR4090) but the arms are different (FTR4512) but i have no measurements on these, but they are m14 x 1.5. Hope this helps Mr.Bog ________________________________________ Bianca 306 Rallye.Mondeo Titanium X. |

aftermarket may well be different, track widths varied between these cars too, but they all used the same ends, same part as the 205, 309 and a few others.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
