[kustomizingkid]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... so now we know... well when you buy those expect to cut... a LOT...

 

[kustomizingkid]

The K frame side fit GREAT.... no trimming...

 

[ford nut]

That's a classic!

*vizualizes KK struggling with two sets of frame end bushings*

lololol - No wonder some major trimming was required.

I know it OMG
You should have heard us on the phone.

I just didn't make any sense until now thanks Roadboss for pointing it out.

well i just inspected my front end i need sway bar links,lower control arms,strut rod bushings on both ends.I had one question i can do all those things but i wanted to know how to change those inner tie rods?Which brand is best i think im going to order from rock auto?

Sorry about the thread hijack with our BS.

You can use rock auto, parts come very fast, mine came the next day, or order from max.
As far as the innner tie rods I have never done them.

Maybe someone add there 2 cents who has.

I would get the MOOG or check with Max for price.

thats about it, i have a inner tierod tool but all the same. remove outer tie rod end, remove inner boot, remover inner tie rod end, to install reverse procedure.

 

[kustomizingkid]

I would hope you have the damn tool.... ever do a probe on jack stands... more fun to shoot yourself in the face.

You forgot the part about the lock pin (rivet) he has to drive out and install a new one. I guess you could just shear it off with the wrench.

I always drive the pin out, but my buddy just shears em off.. which is rather upsetting when he's working on MY rack and not his.
(lol)
That rack gear isn't as BEEFY as one might think..

 

[XLRVIII]

ever do a probe on jack stands... .

That sounds really REALLY bad.

First he said PROBE...HAHA

then the whole mental picture sounds like a Shade Tree Colonoscopy!

 

[kustomizingkid]

Hahahahaha.... my friend had a red one... he called it his bloody anal probe.

 

[catmech]

i just threw up in my mouth!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Roadboss]

I have a hoist also I can use, a lot of walk around clearance for those tight spots.

 

[chicken]

didnt know the mark had a rivet, mine are still good, always gotta check for the rivet!
