TIE RODS/ TIE ROD ENDS
Removal- Remove the body from the kart (if
applicable). Unbolt and remove the steering cover.
Unfasten the rod ends from the steering shaft and
spindle; using an open-end wrench, hold the hex
section of the rod end stud, and then loosen the nut
from the rod end.
Inspection- Check the tie rod ends for wear or
damage. Rod ends should pivot freely and have no
slop at the ball (see arrow). Check the tie rod for
straightness and damage.
NOTE: Tie rods can be bent during heavy impacts.
Bent tie rods can be removed, straightened and re-
installed.
The tie rod ends can be removed by holding them
with an open-end wrench, or appropriate adjustable
wrench, on the machined flat, then loosening the
locknut holding it in place (one rod end is right-
hand threaded, the other is left-hand threaded.)
Reinstallation- Install the tie rod assembly by
reversing the procedure used to remove them.
NOTE: A spray lubricant can be used to silence
sqeaky tie rod ends.
