Note to anyone reading this: Be careful on the torque specs, as every car chassis is different. For example, 25ft-lbs is not even close to enough for German cars. My Mercedes has those ball joints/nuts torqued to 38 ft-lbs and then 90 degrees beyond that (ends up being about 105 ft-lbs, which is 4 times the 25 you used).

Pre-greased outer tie rods, I suppose? (Many come without that step completed prior to purchase/ delivery; we must install grease fitting, then grease after install with flexible fitting on grease gun, with properly rated grease.) Hope this helps also, and be well

Thank you. That was easy auto fix.

I changed a outer tie rod end today. I took off the castle nut, put it back on. Hit with a hammer. Came off. I had a very difficult time getting the castle nut back off and the shaft kept spinning. I did finally get it off and replaced with a lot of cussing. Next time, I won't put the castle nut back to hit. Hit it anyway. I'm replacing it.

@frankmontez6853 Год назад

I borrowed the very same tie rod tool from Oreillys and it couldn’t hold it. It couldn’t hold it to get it off . It kept slipping. Read all the instructions and used the wrench end that was closest to size . Still couldn’t get a grip kept skipping. Yeah I locked it in

@Dillon-fc4xk 3 месяца назад

Great video, straight to the point and no bull. I watched a video a few minutes ago that said "tie rod replacement" and it took almost 7 minutes before he even mentioned the tie rod ends🙄🙄

Nice

@oussamadjaou9181 Год назад

What happen if we change just one side ?

@PompeyMatt17 9 месяцев назад

as long as it's aligned at the shop, nothing, but if one's worn sure enough the other won't be far behind..best do both at once

@jjmccloud 3 месяца назад

If you can't afford to do both or something and both aren't bad then nothing but its just more practical to do both together. They wear at a similar rate ,when 1 goes it won't be long before the other does but worst case is you basically do the job twice if not changing them together, it's not gonna cause any issues if you dont assuming the other isn't bad of course

@DT-ge8gd Год назад

You didn't grease the new inner tie rod end joint, before putting the boot back on. And what grease was on it already !? Yellow grease? I would be making sure its a lithium molybdenum grease.

I ordered the inner tie rod, and the ones I received are shorter than the original. passenger side took 17 turns to take off and 16 on driver side. Assembling back the passenger side took 15 turns, and driver side is only 10 is that safe?

@joebourke1018 Год назад

That was the tie rod ends I was referring to that took 17&16 turns to take off, and 15&10 turns to put on the tie rod ends.

I have learned to ‘start the job’ about a week before! Do the lube thing, as a pre-lube ie it’s best to even speculatively lube a bit around all suspension threads with grease, whenever you take the wheels off. My mechanic says it’s a bit amateur to have grease everywhere…totally agree, any professional lets it rust up ready to need de-seized next time! No, fair do’s, that’s a reasonable perspective when you don’t own the car. However, owning the car, I told my mechanic: ‘Thing is, I’ve never had something I greased-over, fall off or unscrew. What I HAVE had repeatedly, is un-greased stuff, refuse to come apart without terrible hammering and ruined threads, and nuts that have rusted to one size down in size’…ie a 16mm turns into a 15mm in practice, and rust has no strength if you try to spanner on it, it crumbles as we all know. This pre-emptive lubrication/pre-greasing, works for me quite well. If you don’t want to do it, that’s fine too. Take care all. [Edit: the best grease, might be thick hi-temp brake grease, for this pre-lubing approach. It’s so claggy it hardly ever comes off, or flows where it shouldn’t. And, when heated, the oils in it come out, but my experience is, this wicks directly into the threads of the joint/fastener etc. I’ve used both ordinary grease and hi-temp brake grease, without an issue, for pre-greasing. Take care.]
