Outer tie rods, sometimes referred to as “tie rod ends,” connect the steering rack to the steering knuckle. Their joints can wear out over time, causing loose steering, vibrations, and uneven tire wear. They are also a common failure point in localities with safety inspections. This video shows you how to install new TRQ outer tie rods on your 1988-2002 GMC K1500.

What's a veericle
So I just ordered a tie rod kit from you guys but I noticed that in your how to video that you don’t show us how to pack them with grease being that these do not have zerk fittings why?
Sleeve opening should be 90° off of from sleeve clamps that hold it together, having them all same direction weakens joint l, especially in offroad application
Outstanding
What about the locking nut that came with mine does it matter if its on the inner or outer
Thanks
Veericle
All very nice except >>>>>> You measured outside joint to outside joint. Depending on Brands, that measurement may vary greatly. Try measuring from center to center of the ball joint for better accuracy!
Website says fits Chevy c1500 is it same for k1500?
Thank god I live in Texas all that rust
Is it possible to remove the inner tie rod without damaging it? I want to transfer it to a other vehicle.
My inners are seized in, do you have a vid on a good tool to get them out. I broke a cheap autozone tool trying to remove them. 94 k1500.
I just put the trq tie rods on my truck
Would you like some truck with that rust? Glad I live in the south.
