Re: change wheel parts (thunderboy)
how do you change an inner tie rod end?
There is a tool that looks like a 2 foot long socket that slides over the threaded Rod w/ the outer TRE removed.
Before you remove the Outer tie Rod end Measure from the center of the ball socket stud to a Fixed Point , DO NOT COUNT TURNS not all TRE were Created Equally. You are doing this So that you Toe Angle Doesnt get Moved to Far.
and if your talking about an outer TRE, Back the Jam Nut Off after Doing the Measurement I Discussed, Disconnect the Ball Socket Nut, And there are Various Ways of Removing the ball socket stud from the Knuckle Just Dont Use Heat...Theres no need.
