tie rods

hey guys was just wondering do i have to replace tha tie rods or can i just replace tha bushings i can see that mines are a little worn or maybe alot worn

Replace the tie rod ends. The tie rods themselves are just metal pipes threaded at the ends (left hand threads at one of the ends) so toe can be adjusted.

thanks cusser

Remember when you are taking out the old ends to count the number of rotations it takes to remove the end you are replacing so you can avoid having to get a front end alignment. My .02.

.02 well taken i was just on ebay and saw the innner ,outter tie rods, ball joints, pitman arm for like $100 will be putting in the order on friday a deal i couldnt pass up

FYI: I've had two ball joints pretty much freeze up and then squeak on my B2200, so I replaced those. Luckily they are bolt-on type, not press-in type.

I bought a kit! It has been working flawlessly.
If yours comes with an idler arm, make sure to put some red locktite on the big nut on top. Mine was a lock nut(Nylon type), but it still came loose a few times.

That might get you somewhat close, but with all the different suppliers, I'd still check/adjust the toe. That "technique" works when you're re-installing the same part.
