Tie rods pics???

Can some post a few pics of the way our tie rods go together, how they join to the power steering and bolt to the frame on the passenger side.

Thanks.

Re: Tie rods pics???

I don't have any pictures handy, but from the spindles in, are an outer tie-rod, sleeve, inner tie rod, attaching to a center linkage. The driver's side has a pitman arm attaching to the steering box (splines on the box side, and a tapered rod on the linkage side, and the passenger's side has an idler arm that bolts to the frame, with a tapered rod through to the linkage.

Hope that helps.

Hey Thanks Guys!!! Got it done!!! A special thanks to Pete Boeh who sent me about 10 pic showing just what this old dude forgot when I took them off 2 years ago. I know....I have to paint the frame cross support...I know I know...LOL.

Realized it needed cleaning and paint prior to installing the sway bar. She's ready for paint now. Paint and the Sway bar next!!!
