The primary benefit is its ability to simplify the installation and removal of inner tie rods, especially in confined or hard-to-reach areas of a vehicle's steering system, reducing the difficulty and time required for repairs.
No, the set includes the tie rod tool with socket and seven open-jaw drivers. You will need to use your own compatible open-jaw driver (like a socket wrench or breaker bar) to operate the tool.
The set includes seven open-jaw drivers with sizes: 1-3/16", 1-1/4", 1-5/16", 1-7/16", 14 mm, 17 mm, and 33.6 mm.
The set is designed for most common passenger vehicles. However, it is advisable to check the specific tie rod dimensions of your vehicle to ensure compatibility with the included driver sizes.
After use, clean the tools of any grease or dirt. Applying a light coat of oil will help prevent rust. Store all components securely in the provided blow-moulded case.
The blow-moulded case has dimensions of 53.5 cm in length, 15.5 cm in width, and 8.5 cm in height (L x W x H).
This specific tool is designed for inner tie rods. Outer tie rods often require different types of removal tools due to their different mounting and connection points.
Ensure the correct size open-jaw driver is securely attached to the tool and that the tool's socket is fully seated onto the tie rod end. Avoid excessive force that could deform the tie rod.
Verify the tie rod end's exact measurement. If a specific size is not included, manual methods or alternative tools may be necessary. Consult your vehicle's service manual for precise specifications.
Check for dirt or rust on the tie rod end or within the tool's mechanism. Clean and lubricate the components. Ensure you are using an appropriate leverage tool for adequate torque.
