NOTICE: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect performance of vital components and systems and their failure may result
in major service expense. New parts must be installed with the same part numbers or equivalent parts, if replacement is necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of correct
retention of these parts.
1. Remove the wheel bearing and wheel hub. For additional information, refer to Wheel Bearing and Wheel Hub See: Wheel Bearing/Service and
Repair/Front Suspension.
2. Remove and discard the tie-rod end nut.
3. Using the Ball Joint Separator, separate the tie-rod end from the wheel knuckle.
