I have a 94 Suzuki Swift that has a hard knocking when I turn right. I want to know how I can change the upper and lower tie rods at home instead of taking it to the shop to be fixed. Any suggestions would be great.How do repair a Suzuki Swift%26039;s tie rods?
there are no upper and lower tie rods. the outer tie rod ends can be replaced using 1 or 2 wrenches, wire cutters to remove and install cotter pins, a good size hammer to release the outer tie rod end from the steering knuckle. on your rack %26amp; pinion steering system, typically you would need and inner tie rod socket removal and installation tool although if access allows, you could remove and install inner tie rod sockets with a large wrench or large crescent wrench.How do repair a Suzuki Swift%26039;s tie rods?
Know what you doing and all the safety aspects:
Get a manual, get all the right tools for the jobs, and then take it to have the tracking done in a workshop after you have completed the work.
I suspect that if you don't have all the above and you are doing it as a cost saving then that will not be the case in the short term.
But in any case it could be A CV JOINT FROM THE DESCRIPTION !

As the 1st post said, tie rods do not make noise in turns. CV Joints do and knowing these cars you better have a shop do it since the joints will be very very tight in the transmission.
