Gday Guys and Gals!
In this video i give you a thorough run through on how to remove/replace a failed tie rod end/track rod end and also how to check the ball joint for play and wear.
After removing the split pin you can loosen the nut off, now the hard bit is getting the ball joint end out of the hub, some are easier than others but you never know what your going to get!
Usually you can use a ball joint breaker which you can get from any auto store but i broke mine getting these tie rod ends out last time so i used the shock method by hitting the hammer on the side of the steering knuckle. If the ball joint is really hard to get out you can heat it with an oxy torche, buy a ball joint breaker or get a bigger hammer haha!
Hope this video helps some of you guys out there with replacing tie rod/ track rod ends.
If you would like to see any particular how to videos just leave a comment and i will see if i can help!
Cheers, Nick!
