Steering Linkage Test

  1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist. Refer to JACKING & LIFTING article.
  2. Using hand force only, check the inner and outer tie rods for vertical and lateral movement in the tie-rod ball studs/sockets.
    • If there is any lateral or vertical movement in the tie-rod ball studs/sockets (inner or outer), a new tie-rod must be installed. Refer to the POWER STEERING article for the procedure.
