How to Install a Tie Rod End on 2008 Dodge Ram 3500?

Engage the tie rod with both the left steering knuckle and the drag link and then attach it with nuts tightened to 54 Nm (40 ft. lbs.). After tightening, turn the rod 90°. Following this, eliminate the supports and carefully lower the vehicle to the ground, aligning the steering wheel and changing the toe before replacing all the supporting jacks. After finishing the adjustment, fasten the tie rod adjustment sleeve clamp bolts to 61 Nm (45 ft. lbs.), making certain the clamp rests on the sleeve and the retaining bolt is below the clamp.
