TRW instead of FRAP



I am not fond of taking other people's FRAP, so I went down to a very
well-stocked independent auto parts store (Dick's Auto Parts, for those
of you in North Dallas) and scanned through their catalog of TRW tie-rod
ends. I purchased the following parts:

TRW ES2096 - inner tie rod end with RH thread. I was amazed when I
pulled this one from the box - it is an EXACT match for the FRAP in
looks, except the quality is far superior (they look like good German
parts).

TRW ES476L - inner tie rod end with LH thread. This one is usually used
as a Toyota Celica OUTER tie rod end. It looks a little different than
the FRAP, but the quality is there.

That's as far as I got.

It's true, in Texas we can't give the parts a salt-spray test, but I am
very satisfied with these parts.
