With the new upper and lower
ball joints installed, you can reinstall the spindle. Use the supplied
castle nuts and torque them to spec. Then install new cotter pins to
keep everything secure. |

Put the tie rod back on the
spindle, measure stock tie rod length and make a note of it. This is necessary to retain proper
alignment. Changing the length of these will affect the toe-in / toe-out
setting and steering wheel center position. |

Here are the new tie rod inner
and outer links and polyurethane boots. Reassemble the tie rods using these. |
|
Using the measurement you
noted before, make the new tie rod assembly the same length as before.
Install the polyurethane boots. |

Install the tie rods and
torque to spec. Install the grease fittings. |
