What did the trans-am and NASCAR guys run bak in the day?



Nascar back in the day in a 4,000lb? cars at 200mph on a 31Deg banking for 500 miles in wheel to wheel competition with a 100,000 spectators behind a fence 20? feet away ran I believe 3/4" TR




Those car were 4200 lbs. And ran 200 mph for 500-600 miles. Had to take hits and rubs against other cars and objects. On top of that, a lot of the stuff was overbuilt.

The tie rods were massive. Do not copy these. It makes no sense to.

Tie rod was pn 2535126 Rt, and 2535127 Lt. Stock Rt tube 9 3/4" (not pictured) was 2535130. You probably could cross reference those p/n's. I'm sure off of some big commercial truck.

The tube pictured below is probably fabricated Petty Engineering tube.
