M939 Tie Rod Ends

[juanprado]

I have a bunch of new tie rods with ends that I got years ago at a salvage yard. They made me cut them in half, but they were new. I don't know about size but Ill go get one and see.

What I don't see is the thread part in your video.

I checked and the thread seems to be 1 1/4"- 12 and the nut holding the taper part is 7/8". They are US made by TRW. They are getting some surface rust, otherwise new.

Some brands stamp the part number on the flat surface where the zerk fitting screws into?

Seems to say 1H8.

That is I suspect a production/date code.

I couldn’t find anything on mine. Mine are a different manufacturer I suspect. Grease zerk is on side with a raised cast area

I seem to have only one pair of left and right thread and several of the right hand thread. I don't have the 5 ton to measure, what is the tube length ? I can get 35.5" using the pair, more if I sleeve it.(with quality weld).

I've found some on Friday morning on Ebay, TRW's. Guy has a whack of them so I ordered 2 rights and 2 lefts for $18 US each. I'll see how they are when I get them. Being in Canada this could take a bit. Sorry, I have not logged in since thursday.
