[QUOTE="2slo95fiveoh, post: 699014, member: 8966"] Why is it that you are buying all these suspension parts, just to freshen up the steering? Chances are if you've never replaced an inner tierod before, it might be a little difficult. Loosen the jam nut, then nut that holds the outer tie rod to spindle. Remove outer tierod from spindle, untwist outer tierod, untwist jam nut, remove inner dust boot, loosen inner tierod (usually requires inner tierod sockets, but can be done with large wrench or pliers.) And an Alignment will be required after all is changed.. You can thread the outer tie-rod on the EXACT threads onto the inner, but with the tighter tollerances of new parts, your cars alignment will be off. [/QUOTE]
