Default 67 PS Outer Tie Rod

I got this with the Granada disc swap. Is it suppose to go on the driver side or passenger?

You only got 1 tie rod? if you have new discs and need new tie rods you will need both of them...

Are you sure you don't need the idler arm?

Yes, the 67 PS Mustang does not require different outer tie rod ends. However, you will need to go to the auto parts store and get a PAIR of 1977 Granada outer tir rod ends. They have really big pins, bigger even than the 70-73 Mustang.

Another reason I don't like Granada brakes.

I got both along with the Idler arm. They did look the same, and are larger than the originals. I just wasn't sure if one in particular is suppose to go on the RH or LH side.

The tie rods should be able to go on either side, they're interchangeable. The idler arm just bolt off and bolt back on, and be sure to torque everything down appropriately and put in the cotter pin.

He did you a disservice, because the 70-73 outers are smaller than the Granada OTR.
