Steering center rod for 510/610

Post by 180bst »

Hi All
I'm Looking for a 610 180b center link rod for the steering if anyone has a spare. Must have a good incorporated ball joint on the on end.
I think the 510 and 610 are the same from what I have researched.
Thanks Andrew

is yours worn out, or do you not have one at all?
HBI in christchurch can reconditions the joints if their flogged out. Makes then as good as new. Much better than a 40 year old used part.

I need a complete replacement one. I do have one but the thread on the ball joint has been mushroomed by a hammer. Im sure the reconditioning process only repairs the worn ball socket, so looking for a good complete rodf at the moment
