Replace bent, seized or damaged steering adjusters with this pair of tie rod steering adjuster rods, designed to suit Holden HQ, HJ, HX, HZ and WB models, along with compatible late HG applications.
Located between the inner and outer tie rod ends, these adjuster rods form an important part of the steering linkage and allow the effective length of the tie rod assembly to be adjusted when setting the vehicle's front wheel toe alignment.
Original adjuster rods can become bent, damaged or seized after decades of use. They are also sometimes incorrectly used as towing or recovery points, which can distort the rod and make accurate wheel alignment difficult or impossible.
This pair provides a straightforward replacement for worn or damaged originals, making them ideal for steering rebuilds, suspension restorations and front-end overhauls.

Important HG Fitment Note

Please inspect your existing steering components before ordering if purchasing for an HG.
What Does the Tie Rod Adjuster Do?
The steering adjuster rod connects the inner and outer tie rod ends.
Rotating the adjuster changes the effective length of the steering linkage, allowing the vehicle's front toe-in or toe-out to be correctly set during wheel alignment.
A straight, serviceable adjuster is therefore important when rebuilding the steering system or attempting to correctly align the front suspension.
Common Reasons for Replacement
Original steering adjusters may require replacement due to:
• Bent adjuster rods
• Seized or corroded threads
• Damaged threads
• Previous impact damage
• Incorrect use as a towing or recovery point
• Difficulty achieving correct wheel alignment
• General deterioration during a steering rebuild
If an adjuster is visibly bent or the threads cannot be adjusted smoothly, replacement should be considered before completing a wheel alignment.

Installation
These adjusters form part of the vehicle's steering system, so correct installation is important.
When replacing the adjuster rods, we recommend inspecting the inner and outer tie rod ends, drag link and surrounding steering components for wear or damage.
A professional wheel alignment should be performed after installation to correctly set the vehicle's front toe alignment.
Never use the steering linkage or tie rod adjuster rods as a towing or vehicle recovery point.
