Statesville drivers book tie rod replacement with Wrench Rescue because it's finished where the car sits. Coming up I-77 to Statesville is a normal run for us, and Iredell County is squarely inside our hour.
Why Statesville drivers book mobile tie rod replacement
Statesville is home base. We're the mobile mechanic Iredell County calls when a car quits in the driveway, the office lot, or the shopping center parking deck, and we know every neighborhood from Downtown to the Wilkesboro Highway corridor. That's exactly the situation mobile steering & suspension work solves: the mechanic comes to the vehicle, so a car that shouldn't be driven doesn't have to be.
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.
- Check for play at each tie rod end
- Replace the outer and/or inner tie rod
- Match the original length to keep toe close
- Torque and install a new cotter pin or lock nut
- Recommend alignment
