following WARNING and CAUTION.
WARNING
• The ball joints must be threaded into the rod at least 5/16 of an inch (8 mm). Failure to thread ball
joints in deep enough may cause a ball joint to separate from the rod during adjustment or while being

Right-hand threads are identified by a groove in the tie rod or drag link.
