It's been well established that I am dumber than the average bear, but aren't the tie rod ends (on turbo tie rods) just supposed to unscrew off the tie rod? I'm not talking about getting the threaded end out of the control/pittman arm -- I've done that. I'm trying to replace the tie rod end. Heat, PB Blaster, but I can't seem to break it free. It's not easy getting leverage on the rod and the end at the same time, but I've put a fair amount of torque on there with no luck.
Any suggestions or thoughts? |

Hey Rob! Hope all is well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
I used A spacer washer. I don't think it was the thick one you see in the 911 kit. I used a much narrower one that either came with the kit I purchased or swapped in for that thicker washer. I can't remember now, but I'm sure I did it based on threads I read here. |
