Inner Tie Rod
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Dodge Journey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Always check and repair (if necessary) outer tie rod free-play before checking inner tie rod free-play. False results can otherwise be obtained.
- Grasp the inner tie rod near the steering gear bellows and attempt to move the tie rod straight up and down. If any free-play is felt, replace the inner tie rod. Refer to TIE ROD, STEERING, REMOVAL .
- If no free-play is felt, install the front wheels. Refer to INSTALLATION .
- Remove support and lower the vehicle.
