Best Answer

1. Remove front tire after jacking up front end and placing car on jackstand.

2. Using dikes, remove cotter pin holding castellated nut on to tie rod end.

3. Loosen nut until almost all the way off of tie rod end.

4. Back off locking nut which is up against tie rod end sleeve.

5. Using very large, heavy hammer (or "pickle fork" with a hammer), knock very hard on the tie rod end to loosen the tie rod end from the hole in the wheel spindle.

6. Remove nut entirely and pull tie rod end out of hole.

7. Counting the number of turns, carefully unscrew tie rod from the inner tie rod.

8. Replacement is reverse of removal. Accurately counting the number of turns can eliminate the need for a front end alignment after the new tie rod is installed.
