track rod

[jwarren2k2]

part of my track rod is bent, just where the track rod end is connected to it.

i need to know, please, if this from eurocarparts is the correct thing to get so i dont have to replace the whole steering rack?

the description is...

STEERING ARM COMPLETE WITH ENDS RH STEERING ARM COMPLETE WITH ENDS RH
ARM RH COMPLETE WITH ENDS

Here's a pic and the circled bits are the bits that need replacing (sorry for poor quality)

if the old one comes off ok then re-use it, but the pair of them are 6 quid for new ones...

I always renew on customers cars
