Followed your video, thank you for making this. I literally saved close to 500$.
Thanks 🙂
Probably a couple of hours or so if everything goes good.
I’m doing mine and they both look identical. Changing inner and outer both sides.

Why would you not replace the outer tie rod while were at it? It’s cheap, and you already had it apart. Oh, well good job other than that.
Good video.
can just knock off outer tie rod from below with hammer,no need for tool.
also get some gloves,yr hands will thank ya!

great video .. especially the part on the special lock washer that locks the inner rod from spinning off. I learned this the hard way. When I brought my car into the shop to have my car alignment done, the rod came right off during the alignment and I had to pay them to do it…. I was disappointed that I missed this step. I should have watched this video first. Thanks
are driver and passenger side the same job and parts?
How long from start to finish?
Thanks 🙂
This is one of the best repair videos I’ve ever seen done. No BS in the beginning, you just got right to work and skipped any unnecessary steps (most people would have kept the camera rolling while counting 26 turns of the outer rod… 26 turns to put it back on… all of their failed attempts to remove the inner, etc).
Plus, it looks like you genuinely did a good job. Camera work was fantastic, I’m really glad you got a shot of that inner clamp on the rubber boot. It’s almost impossible to see!
Good camera work. Good job!
Yeah that seems more legit. I don’t see the reason for the washers, since technically the outer tie rod’s nut and the outer tie rod itself would keep the inner tie rod from ever spinning out of place
where your rods actually bad or did you just feel like changing them
I used a simple crowsfoot wrench and socket to get mine off/on
Good vid. I’m doing this job on my Honda Civic this weekend. They only thing I’m doing differently is applying thread locker to the inner tie rod threads and waiting until after I bend the lock ring tabs down to apply any additional grease to the joint since it’s a little easier to do without all the messy grease in the way.
Thank you. I’m going to being doing this on my 2000 Altima this weekend and your video was very useful as a guide 🙂
Nice video
Beautiful description of to get this done.
Good for me too! I have a ’98 Maxima that needs front end work. This gives me the confidence to tackle the job. Thx
thank you for the video…i truly appreciate it
craftsman never asks what you did to your tools. if it breaks they’ll replace it on questions asked
Thanks for the part number of the rental tool. The guys at my local store has no idea.
Thanks anyway.
I’m glad you liked it. Sorry, I don’t know there’s any difference between the 3rd and 4th generations
