    Only thing I'd add is maybe search for the correct torque specs but before that I'd also recommend taking a measurement on both inner and outer ends and maybe a touch less grease but nicely done sir 👍

    So carefully mark the threads in yellow then throw that part away.
    This is the inner so that's the outer because that's the outer and the other one is the inner. So don't mix them up.(as he mixes them up)
    Didn't mention that one tie rod is larger in diameter and one is reverse threaded.

    The only thing I would add is take a measurement on both inner and outer center points to a specific point because each manufacture could make their parts a bit longer or shorter than factory.

    For the 97 Expedition 4WD, there are added complications to changing all 4 tie rod ends. The torsion bar runs so close to the inner tie rods that even a low-profile puller doesn't fit. You have to unbolt the torsion bar both from the frame and from the lower A-arms. Those 25-year old long bolts enclosed by a plastic sleeve are rust magnets! Have fun removing them. I thought I had ordered the correct tie rods: MEOE-64(right-outer) and 66(right-inner) but both ends had right-handed threads. One of them should have been left-handed so that rotating the adjustment sleeve either moves them apart or pulls them together. So apparently I either got two 64's or I got two 66's. Since the part numbers are not stamped on the tie rods, have fun guessing which I had an extra of, because no one states which has the right-handed thread and which has the left-handed thread! I did look at Ford Part's pictures and you can kind of make out what thread each has (assuming they put the correct picture in the correct part description.) It looks like the MEOE-66 has left-handed thread. (So Amazon sent me a 64 in a 66 box!😡) So on the passenger side, the inner has L-thread and outer has R-thread. So turning the sleeve counter-clockwise should increase toe-in (each sleeve has a R-threaded end and a L-threaded end). In a sane world, turning the driver's side sleeve counter-clockwise should also increase toe-in. However, the MEOE-114 (inner) has R-thread and the MEOE-63 (outer) has L-thread. You have to turn the sleeve clockwise to increase toe-in! Arrrrrrrrgh! Well, this has been an enlightening experience which wouldn't have occurred if I'd been shipped the correct parts. I've ordered a new MEOE-66 and will just have to eat the extra 64 (unless someone needs it! 🙂)

    My es3364 didn't have a grease fitting on it but every other tie rod did?

    I wonder if the alignment is really necessary since they are back pretty much how you took them off?

    • @edhoffmann9387
      @edhoffmann9387 3 года назад +1

      Yes an alignment is always a good idea.

    • @adamrussell6155
      @adamrussell6155 3 года назад +1

      Truck was probably out of alignment before starting the project. So, if you put it back together exactly the same, it's still out of alignment
