Removing and installing rear tie rod (toe control arm)
Preliminary work

Remove wheel.

Removing rear tie rod

1. Mark the position of the toe eccentric for re-installation.
2. Release tie rod at suspension subframe (eccentric screw) and at wheel carrier. Pull out tie rod.

To make removal easier, raise wheel carrier slightly with universal jack! - Use rubber base to prevent wheel carrier from slipping!
