You wouldn't be able to turn your vehicle left or right without a TIE ROD. A TIE ROD connects to the front wheels. It's a very important part of the suspension and steering system.
A tie rod end that needs to be replaced can manifest itself in many ways. You might first feel the steering wheel shake. This symptom is sometimes related to worn tie rods, but you could also note uneven tire wear, always out-of-alignment wheels, unresponsive handling, or thunk-thunk sounds when turning at low speeds.
These sensations shouldn't be overlooked, as the TIE ROD is a crucial part of the steering and suspension system. Without a functioning TIE ROD, you can't turn corners! Tie rods can wear out naturally over time, be damaged in an impact, or through constant driving on bumpy roads.
Replacing your TIE ROD at home is not impossible, but it does require automotive know-how, a few free hours, and some special tools (like a grease gun, needle-nose pliers, a torque wrench, car jack and stands, vehicle-approved grease, socket wrenches, and a pickle fork removal tool). Start with your vehicle's manual and the trained team at your local service center. Correct torque values are essential for a successful TIE ROD replacement and overall vehicle handling.
