Tie end rods and C links front axle replacement

[chatty123]

Hi All

I recently had the control arms changed on my B7 S line - all good so far.

I'm looking to change primarily the C links or sway bar link as they are called I think and possibly the tie end rods.

Couple of questions.

1. Are the C link easy to change, I took the wheel off and can see them and to be honest it looks as though one has a nut missing!!

2. Are the tie end rods easy to change and what should I look out for?

3. Will I need a wheel alignment after changing c link, tie end rods or both?

4. What make/brand is good as i'm keeping the car for a few years.

Thanks

Buy genuine parts they're not that expensive, you will need to have the car tracked after changing the tie rods. I think you have to torque the "C" links with the wheels on the ground (or maybe off the ground)
