the truck is a 2003 Dodge 2500 4X4, crew cab, 5.7 litre
Just replaced the upper and lower ball joints, universals, rotors and pads. No problems during dis-assembly other than the just awful time separating the hub and steering knucle. it took a looooonnngggg time to get apart.
The problem is with the tie rod ends. I removed them with a pickle fork and now am trying to reattach. I bought 2 new nylock nuts but can't tighten them, the bolt just spins. Do I have to buy a new tie rod assembly?
What is the collective wisdom about this .
