A little mystery:
I am cannibalizing my '86 CGT parts car for the benefit of my '87.5.
I pulled the tie rods on the '86 tonight, and realized the pass. side is the
"bent" style that I thought (and ETKA says) is Quattro-only.
The '87's rods are both straight. Did my mechanic, way back when, put a
wrong part in the '86? Or are the bent & straight tie rods
interchangeable?? I do remember having a hell of a time keeping the '86
aligned for long periods of time. This might explain a few things.
