Well the engine swap has begun. The 88 engine is out getting a PC2000 treatment and the 86 engine is still in it's original sorry state. I have some nice 87 cases that will be used for the 86 engine rebuild. Going to make it a long rod. Besides exposing my seat hoarding issue, you can see from this pic how everything came together - red hubs (not really visible), the gold wheels, PC black Duncan bumper, shocks, etc. Can't wait to finish this SOB once and for all...LOL.

Third time is the charm! Finally figured out the correct OCAP tie rods and these look to be a perfect match. Lessons learned - I bought 4 Moogs (16mm), 4 OCAPs (14mm LH), and the same OCAPs but with the RH thread. Moogs are easy because PN's ending in R means Right and L means Left. OCAP part numbers end in 1 = LH and 2 = RH. Just figured I'd throw it out there for those of you who may order direct from a distributor. I paid the same amount for 12 tie rods as what JD performance was going to charge for 4+shipping. If you need 14mm JB racing has the best price $25 unless you go direct from an auto parts store. I'll still save $50 after all the returns. Having fun though....

Now I'm back in business!

Wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing part numbers for the replacements you found

This is what worked. I bought the left hand threads the first time...LOL. You can google the part # and find a bunch of suppliers.

thanks for the info.

86 is gone! Sold as a roller today. Kept the engine, plastics, tank, and seat.

Gonna start a new thread for this 97' LSR Outlaw.

Trying to get a nice sampling I guess.
