Howdy,
I replaced the inner tie rod on my 2004 4x4 4.0L tonight and was planning on reusing the outer tie rod end, but when I go to put the castle nut on, the bolt that goes up into the ball joint starts to spin when the nut reaches the pin hole. Am I missing something or do I just need to head down to the parts store and get a new outer tie rod in the morning?
Also if anyone has a tip for getting the clamp back on the inner tie rod boot I'm all ears!
