- Well, so much for terminology. If, in the US, you were to ask for a ball joint, you will never get a tie rod end. My error, I forgot how wide the audience is. I also never suggested that a king pin w

- Ooops, sorry again. Does living in a hundred year old year house in a street full of hundred year old houses make us old? Is this why this is the old country? I'm not sure we have goofy words for spr
