Default 32-34 Tie Rod Ends

I've got 4 pairs of NOS 32-34 tie rod ends with new guts,seals & tins. Just the loose parts are about $21 per end. They have been glass beaded to remove a little surface rust. I bought them so long ago I forgot what I paid for them. Any suggestions?

The A ends have the grease nipple in a different location.

If you are selling, start at $100 each and go down from there. They aren’t making NOS parts anymore.

These are definitely 32-34 as the grease nipple is in inline with the slit in the pinch clamp. I bought a good number of these several years ago to use on a few chassis. These are left overs.

Ford moved the grease fitting from the front to the back in late 1930.

I know what they are, I was asking for some pricing advice.

I think that is a little on the high side.

The tie rod ends that I find tend to be either really nice (as in looking NOS) or extremely pitted. Oddly, I don't find them in-between.

I added up all the prices of reproductions for both sides and it was $85 at Snyder's.

Never buy my loaded NOS originals for $85 a pair!

Tim: I'm used to being Poo Pooed about the prices I ask. I don't normally buy junk and dam sure don't sell junk. Sometimes I win and Sometimes I lose. Been buying and selling old car parts for over 50 years, I'm a slow learner.

Gary, I hear you. Parts sales are in a weird place right now. I truly hope you sell them for what you'd like to get. I like using these ends for I think it's a nice detail in an early hot rod.

I've been buying and selling vintage parts for 50 years too. I very rarely get the claimed "market value", but keep in mind, when I'm selling it, its because I want it gone, and most likely still made a profit.
