Why Lincolnton drivers book mobile tie rod replacement

Lincolnton is the Lincoln County seat and the southwest corner of our map. Still inside the hour, and we're glad to make the trip. We've done plenty of tie rod replacement jobs in this part of Lincoln County, and the process is the same everywhere: confirm the problem, quote it, fix it, and clean up.

What's included

Tie rods connect the steering rack to the wheels. When the ends wear you get a loose, vague steering feel, a clunk when you turn the wheel at low speed, and tires that feather across the tread. We replace inner and outer tie rods and set the toe as close as possible, then send you for a proper alignment.

  1. Check for play at each tie rod end
  2. Replace the outer and/or inner tie rod
  3. Match the original length to keep toe close
  4. Torque and install a new cotter pin or lock nut
  5. Recommend alignment

Signs it's time
