Yeah Perry. The tapered hole on DC5 struts are larger than the ones on EP3 struts. DC5 tie rod ends are required when running DC5 struts. :)Quote:

Thanks ben, I'm very glad i asked. Reason being, is i purchased some tein monoflex for dc5 off the original owner of my ep3, and he's had them on the car before, and i noticed a bit shaved off the lower bush on the rears.
might as well give these to a DC5 owner for free...Quote:

I would've thought it's more required. Check out the size difference. Wouldn't the EP tie rod end in a DC5 bracket have heaps of play? http://i918.photobucket.com/albums/a...n/100_5616.jpg
hello
Hi Felix.
