Instructions:
- Park on level ground, engage parking brake, loosen front wheel lug nuts slightly.
- Raise vehicle with jack and secure on jack stands. Remove the front wheel for the side being serviced.
- Locate the inner tie rod end connecting the steering rack to the outer tie rod. Apply penetrating oil to fasteners if needed.
- Mark the position of the outer tie rod on the shaft or count turns to preserve alignment reference before disconnecting.
- Loosen and remove the jam nut securing the tie rod assembly. Remove the cotter pin and nut from the outer tie rod end, then separate the outer tie rod from the steering knuckle using a puller or pickle fork.
- Unscrew the outer tie rod from the inner to free the assembly, then remove any retaining clip or nut holding the inner tie rod to the rack.

- Grease fittings if present and reassemble any removed components. Reinstall the wheel, lower the vehicle, and torque lug nuts to specification.
- Because the steering geometry may have changed, have a professional wheel alignment performed before driving extensively.
