I used them recently thanks to Brian (and others) recommending. I sent them my old tie rods and track rod ends a few months ago and they sent back nice new LH/RH ones - took about a fortnight and cost circa £150 for all 6 track rod ends and making up two rods.
For what it's worth I also got a selection of camber shims from Classic Bristol Car Parts so I could get that spot on when the alignment was being done as well.

I agree with you about Amsteer, some time ago I ordered a new set of tie rod ends for a 411 as they were showing signs of age.I did this without knowing of the double left hand thread issue. The set arrived and I set about fitting them only to find that I had been supplied with left and right combinations ( why Bristol did the double LH system I have no idea). I contacted Amsteer and they at that stage knew nothing of the problem but to their great credit sent me 2 new left handed tie rod ends at no cost to me and told me not to worry about returning the others.I cannot speak to highly of the service they provided.

I had no idea they would manufacture the RH replacement arms, what a great way to go it would make wheel allgnment so much easier and more accurate.
