Just buying some bits for mine - going to EPS so I'll be having a later rack, not sure whether to buy later track rod ends as well. Not sure whether the thread is different at either rack end or the hub? Need to plan for hubs as well if it's needed - one of my shafts is stuck in the old one so that needs scrapping. Just a question of what to replace it with.

2 different lengths thats all that matters,

As long as you order 2 of the same batch you'll do fine,
