Default Compbrake TRE's - anyone use them?

As I have them fitted to my track car now and have finished putting all suspension on today, before I put it back on the floor.

I have been trying to get the wheel alignment right, it is towing in quite a bit, TRE's fully adjusted in, and still towing in.

Looks like I may have to remove a little off the end of the track rods to allow for the right amount of adjustment, but that's the last thing I want to do.

Anyone got them on?

I have them on my fiesta and had the same issue. Had to chop about 1inch of the end of the track rod

I have the ones from Martin at Reyland and they come ready to fit with the end squared off, might be easier to give him a shout
