Tie rods and ends
Tie rods and ends
OK I was under the truck today for a oil change and this is what I found.
There are two joints that take grease and two that do not if I remember.
Two that don't are shot.
One is the end on the box on the drag link the other is the one on the end of the tie rod that is built into the bar.
Not really sure that the other ones are great but at least I know now that one drag link bar needs replaced and one end.
I have read about the upgrades for the 08 mod year with the one piece tierod and not the Y.
So the questions,
Is that the best way to do it 08-09 mod?
Go back stock Dodge y rods?
Get the Y rods from a parts house aftermarket?
Last is the cost on them all?
And where to find the deal on both setups?
If its cheep to do the old way then fine it got me 95K if it cost more for the new type, and lots better, is it worth it?
Thanks.
