Q: How to service and repair the outer tie rod end on Ford Escort?
A: Service and repair procedures for the outer tie rod end start with setting the key to RUN position while supporting the vehicle in an elevated position. Start by removing the wheel assembly along with its tire by unscrewing the lug nuts. The first step involves discarding the cotter pin from the tie rod end castellated nut followed by removing the nut itself. The Tie Rod End Separator tool will help you disconnect the front wheel knuckle from its tie rod end. Record the positioning on the tie rod end followed by the tie rod end jam nut and the front wheel spindle tie rod in the process. Separate the tie rod end from the front wheel spindle tie rod by loosening the jam nut. Insert and thread the new tie rod end onto the front wheel spindle tie rod before aligning it with markings on both components then tighten the tie rod end jam nut. You should connect the front wheel knuckle with the tie rod end by tightening the castellated nut until its castellations match the cotter pin hole's position before adding the castellated nut together with fresh cotter pin. Finish by installing the wheel and tire assembly then bringing down the car while performing front wheel alignment according to specifications.
