Mark the tie rod thats on the car with paint where it goes into the rack and pinion. Take off the old one, measure or count how many threads are sticking out of the rack then set the new one up the same by thread count. You should be pretty close.How do i change a inner tie rod end on a 1999 chevy prizm?
it fits up inside the rack so you need a special tool to turn it out and put the new 1 back in.
