How do you remove the tie-rod end?

To remove the tie-rod end, start by loosening the wheel lug nuts and raising the front of the vehicle. Support it securely on jackstands and apply the parking brake. Block the rear wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling off the jackstands. Remove the wheel. Then, loosen the tie-rod end jam nut and mark the relationship of the tie-rod end to the threaded portion of the tie-rod. This will ensure the toe-in setting is restored when reassembled. Loosen the tie-rod end ball stud nut and use a puller to separate the ball stud from the steering knuckle arm. Once the ball stud is loose, remove the ball stud nut and completely separate the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle arm. Unscrew the tie-rod end from the tie-rod. To install the tie-rod end, thread it onto the tie-rod to the marked position and insert the tie-rod end ball stud into the steering knuckle arm. Install the nut onto the ball stud and tighten it to the specified torque. Tighten the jam nut securely and then install the wheel. Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque. Finally, have the front-end alignment checked and adjusted if necessary.
