How to Adjust the Steering Tie Rod of a Car?
1 Answers
The adjustment method for the steering tie rod is as follows: 1. Adjust from the left and right tie rods of the steering gear. This means one side needs to be tightened while the other side is loosened, which will straighten the steering wheel. 2. If the steering wheel is off by just one spline tooth, you can also remove the steering wheel and rotate it by one tooth's angle. 3. If the left and right steering angles are different, and if a four-wheel alignment has been performed, the steering wheel angle difference will be minimal. Adjusting from the left and right tie rods of the steering gear will not significantly affect the steering angle. Additional Information: After replacing the tie rod, the toe-in value must be measured because the toe-in value is determined by the length of the tie rod, and each tie rod's dimensions may vary. Additionally, the connection between the tie rod and the tie rod end uses threaded connections, which cannot ensure consistent connection lengths.
