Why Taylorsville drivers book mobile tie rod replacement

Taylorsville is the Alexander County seat and the last real town before the mountains. We're out here every week. 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.

  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

  • Feathered or saw-tooth tire wear
  • Vibration in the steering wheel
