Supposedly this has gone on my right hand front wheel.

Not costing much to fix, but I have to wait till monday and really need my car inbetween now and then.

Is it safe to drive with a nakered track rod end?? Not on about hammering it, just sensible driving.

Cheers,
Sean.

Ah so its alright to drive then.

I get some feed back through my accelerator at times, and get a hollow knocking sound over bumps and a grinding sound round fast corners.

I will just take my time I think.
