Default Brake and Tie rod questions

Does anyone know which tie rods and brake pads I need for my 91 740? Specifically, I need to know if it has Bendix or Girling calipers and whether it has a ZF or TRW steering rack. I need to replace warped rotors and I have a worn tie rod so I need the info to order my pads and tie rods. Thanks

I believe the trw tie rods have a small plastic boot covering them look at the front towards the outside of the car.A Zf will be about a boot about the size of a silver dollar on the outside of it towards the wheel.With the brakes i can't ever remember the diffrence between the bendix or girling.I remember that one has a 1 piston caliper and the other has a 2 piston caliper.I will try to find out tom.Hope this helps.

Don't mean to knudge in on your post, but I also need to know about the brake type for my 92 740T. Same bendix or girling question. By the way, why the different manufacturers? Thanks. john
