Removing the tie-rod end: To start with loosen the lug nuts of the front wheel, engage the parking brake, lift the front end of the car and ensure that it stands firmly on jackstands then remove the front wheel. The next step is to get the tie-rod and use locking pliers or a wrench to loosen the jam nut to the point that the location of the tie-rod end relative to the threads can be marked. Loose the cotter pin, but do not take out the nut on the tie-rod end stud. Disconnect the tie-rod end to the
Steering Knuckle arm with a puller, remove the nut and remove the tie-rod end. Loosen the end of the tie-rod. To install, screw the tie-rod end onto the matching place and place the stud into the steering arm of the knuckle and screw the jam nut. Install the nut on the stud and screw it to the desired torque and then replace a cotter pin. Lastly, place the wheel and lug nuts in place, twist the vehicle and attach lug nuts to the required torque ensuring that the alignment is fixed and corrected should there be a necessity of so.
