I have 2005 chrysler 300 Touring and my outer tie rods are loose. I got some quotes from auto repair shops and it comes to be around $400. I called sears and they said the tie rods only cost about $20 so I was wondering if I can just do it myself? If yes, how? If it helps it has a 3.5 engine and I don't know if this makes a difference but it has 24%26quot; rims.How do I change my tie rods on my car?
You can do it yourself , if you know what you are doing. if not take it and get it done. Its alot harder then you think. You probably don't have the right tools. Don't forget to get an alignment when you are done. Good LuckHow do I change my tie rods on my car?
Raise and support vehicle.
Remove wheel mounting nuts, then both front tire and wheel assemblies.
Remove outer tie rod nut at each knuckle.
Using remover separate outer tie rod from each knuckle.
Unthread outer tie rod from inner tie rod. Count number of turns when removing outer tie rod.
This will give a good starting point when reassembling and when setting toe.How do I change my tie rods on my car?
I agree with Harley. If you have an air chisel with a fork bit, you can do it. The ends are pressed together so its going to take more force than your hands to loosen them. Im not 100% sure on your car but most tie rods are similar. You can put them on by hand and a good ratchet. My opinion is to shop around. Ive had to replace the entire tie rods on a camero that i had once and it pays to shop around. Good LuckHow do I change my tie rods on my car?
