i have a bravo too and it happened to me twice, and i solved it heating up the terminals and gavee it a little angle and problem solved, it had never cracked again.
@haRtleyy12 if i had the money i would have bought a hilux. heaps more aftermarket stuff. at the time with a budget of $15k the best Diesel Dual Cab 4x4 i could find were Bravo/Courier. Mine now has Lift, Twin Lockers, Winch, Snorkel, Dual Batt, CB, Bar & Lights. Next is a body lift. I also have a 2010 Patrol - this is where I start next - live axle in front !!
I too have snapped the left tie rod, just like you. It must be a weak link! I carry a spare one with me now, just in case. Great vid! It still suprises me how capable these mazda's are with a front locker. I love mine!
@greenmorry Hi there. Now have spare Tie Rod complete assmebly on board - now with Front and rear lockers and winch - untested .... cant wait for Easter at Levuka where I'm gonna try this hill again !!
