Inner tie rods
« on: September 19, 2013, 03:39:33 PM »

I have to change out the ITR's on one of the steering racks I have, has anyone done these before? I pulled the boot and looked at it, it's not like any of the inners I've dealt with before. The socket has flats on it, and it seems to have a small stamped retainer instead of a rollpin. Guessing special tools are needed?

Luckily the rack I have is off the car at the moment so it should be a little easier to work on

John- We are hoping to bring the truck and trailer out with us this year....if we can meet up, you can throw them in the back of the truck! If it rains....eegh, so what! They will dry out!
