tie rod

HI everyone, Got a problem and haven’t figured it out yet. Bought a set of tie rods to replace the 5 on my front end. Problem is none of the tie rods match. I’m fairly confident the ones I bought from Specter are the correct ones. All the tie rods currently on my 1972 FJ40 are too small in every...

having a real hard time finding the correct steering tie rod, ordered in 3 with no luck, hoping someone can help me out... cruiser is a 78 BJ40 but we added Saginaw steering about 15 years ago and I didn't keep any notes. YES that was stupid.... tie rod thread is 5/8" and 18 gauge with length of...

Hi All, Started getting a "thunk"/"knock" when turning left while simultaneously going over a bump. Sometimes it does it going straight going over a large rut/bump at speed. I have not had a chance to get under the truck to take a look but I figured, as always, there is usually a "most common"...

Just replaced my TREs on my 80 and noticed my tie rod has a slight crook in it. Is this for differential clearance or is it supposed to be straight? Better to know now so I can easily remove the TREs without a pickle fork. Thanks in advance! -Phil

In the middle of doing some work on a 100 and noticed something you guys may want to know. I replaced a rack and pinion with a reman unit, remans come with inner tie rod ends already installed. I screwed the outer on and noticed it was lacking the range of motion the original had, as in...

Looking for some assistance!!! I am replacing both ends of my tie rod and of my drag link on my 76 - 40 Series with NAPA parts for that year. The only one not matching up, of coarse, is the tie rod end that connects to my saginaw steering pitman arm. Can someone point me in the right...

Hi all - This is my first real post on the forum after a long time of lurking, admiring, and learning. I purchased a 98 LC a couple months ago with 92k on the clock and admittedly didn't do a thorough enough inspection beforehand. However, the only major issues I have found are blown CV boots...

Never seen this before...

Hi I'm replaced tie rod ends on my '73 FJ40. In doing so I did not measure the entire length of the old one before disassemble. Now after installed the new tie rod ends I don't know the exact length. My 40 is all factory stock suspensions and tires. Does anyone know the length from one end...

I've been searching on here, I know this has to have been discussed, but I can't find it. I have a 1991 fj80. I just got it and am fixing her up, her history is unkown, it was gifted to me when a friend found it in an abandoned warehouse he just bought. The steering wheel is not lined up and...

I have an OME steering stabilizer enroute to me. I've done some searching but I can't seem to find a recommendation for a specific tie rod puller to use for removing the old stabilizer. Seen the OEM and the OTC brands recommended, can anyone give me a model number for one that will work?
