Tie rod end torque spec?
I have to replace the right outer tie rod on my Maganum. What is the torque spec? I thought there was a step by step in the Knowledge Base, but I can't find it anywhere......
Any other not so well known tips to tie rod replacement. I know how to measure it close enough to get it the 2 miles to the alignment shop....

just tighten up the jam nut firmly, it won't back away on you and the bottom nut is not going to go anywhere if you put pretty much as tight as you can.
