How to remove a tie-rod end?

To remove the tie-rod end, start by loosening the wheel lug nuts and raising the front of the vehicle on jackstands. Support the vehicle securely and apply the parking brake. Remove the wheel and then loosen the tie-rod end jam nut. Mark the relationship of the tie-rod end to the threaded portion of the tie-rod for proper reassembly. Loosen the nut from the tie-rod end ball stud and disconnect the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle arm using a puller. Remove the nut from the ball stud and discard it, then separate the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle and unscrew it from the tie-rod. To install the tie-rod end, thread it onto the tie-rod to the marked position and connect it to the steering arm. Install a new nut on the ball stud and tighten it to the specified torque. Securely tighten the jam nut and then install the wheel. Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. Finally, have the front end alignment checked and adjusted if necessary.

Chevrolet HHR Tie Rod End

In Chevrolet HHR vehicles, the Tie Rod End is an important part of its steering system which links the steering rack to the steering knuckles. Lack of this component would cause instability of vehicles and poor control of the direction required in certain situations. The Tie Rod End consists of two parts: first, the inner tie rod end connected with a threaded hole on the steering gear to help make smooth steering responses; second, the outer tie rod end connected with a nut in the outer end of the tie rod to provide stabilize for tower. What is more, as it has been already mentioned, there are neither differences in types oscillating nor in styles of the Tie Rod Ends; however, their main purpose remains the same each time when used in any of HHR models. The function also stresses the use of the Tie Rod End because the design presents the ability of the vehicle to move smoothly.

Each OEM Chevrolet HHR Tie Rod End we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
