4. Quraşdırma Təlimatları
The following steps provide a general guide for replacing a tie rod end. Specific procedures may vary by vehicle make and model. Always consult your vehicle's service manual.
- Maşını hazırlayın:
Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and block the rear wheels. Loosen the lug nuts on the wheel where the tie rod end will be replaced. Raise the front of the vehicle using a jack and secure it with jack stands. Remove the wheel.
- Mark Alignment:
Before removal, measure and record the exposed thread length on the old tie rod end. This measurement will help approximate the initial alignment for the new tie rod end. Alternatively, count the number of turns required to remove the old tie rod end from the tie rod shaft.
- Remove Old Tie Rod End:
Remove the cotter pin and castle nut securing the tie rod end to the steering knuckle. Use a tie rod end puller or a pickle fork to separate the tie rod end from the steering knuckle. Loosen the jam nut on the tie rod shaft, then unthread the old tie rod end from the shaft.

- Install New Tie Rod End:
Thread the new MOOG ES801215 tie rod end onto the tie rod shaft. Adjust it to the previously recorded measurement or number of turns. Ensure the jam nut is still loose. Insert the tapered stud of the new tie rod end into the steering knuckle. Install the castle nut and tighten it to the vehicle manufacturer's specified torque. Insert a new cotter pin through the castle nut and stud, bending the ends to secure it.
- Tighten Jam Nut:
Once the tie rod end is properly seated and secured, tighten the jam nut against the tie rod end to the manufacturer's specified torque. This prevents the tie rod end from rotating and changing the alignment.
- Son addımlar:
Reinstall the wheel and tighten the lug nuts. Lower the vehicle to the ground and torque the lug nuts to specification. Dərhal peşəkar təkər hizalanması üçün sifariş verin.
