exposed threads on the tie rod end.

4. Install new tie rod ends or new cross tube.

NOTE: Cross tube has right-hand and left-hand threads for
corresponding sides of the vehicle.

5. Thread tie rod end into cross tube past the tube split. The

number of threads exposed from the tube should be equal
on both left and right tie rod ends.

6. Tighten the clamp nut to 45-60 ft. lbs. (61-81N€m). Make

sure the tab on the clamp holds the end of the cross tube.

7. Install tie rod end into knuckle tie rod arm. Secure with

slotted nut and tighten to 120-160 ft. lbs. (163-217 N€m).

8. Install the cotter pin in the slotted nut and bend the ends to

secure. If necessary, tighten the nut until the holes align.

9. Adjust toe-in.

NOTE: On tie rods with rotating clamp, position clamp with fastener
away from beam.
