How to replace the inner tie rods in the steering linkage on Chevrolet Impala?

The process of steering linkage inner Tie Rod replacement starts with steering gear extraction from the vehicle followed by inner Tie Rod inspection for contamination and rust after boot removal. Any detected contamination will require replacement of the steering gear. Seal the steering gear in a vise while avoiding adjustment of the preload settings before removing its two boots along with breathers. Secure the pipe wrench properly on the left inner Tie Rod housing while extracting the shock dampener which extends from the rack. Screw the pipe wrench onto the rack next to the left inner Tie Rod housing and attach a wrench to the flats of the same housing to turn it counterclockwise until the rack separates from the housing. The same procedure should be performed on the right inner Tie Rod housing. Professional installation of the left inner Tie Rod requires cleaning the threads first and removing previous loctite(R) then applying loctite(R) 262 to the threads before installation to the rack. A pipe wrench engaged with the rack alongside the j-34028 - inner Tie Rod wrench attached to a torque wrench enables left inner Tie Rod tightening to 100 nm (74 lb ft). Install the right inner Tie Rod after applying loctite(R) 262 to its threads then tighten it accordingly. An inspection of the fit should be conducted with a 0.25 mm gage to check the stakes on both sides of the female inner Tie Rod housings which get attached to the male rack. Reinstall the steering gear to its original position on the vehicle but only after applying both left and right shock dampeners across their appointed inner Tie Rod housing slots and attaching the steering gear boots and breather tubes.
