Thanks for not wasting my time with 20 extra minutes of unnecessary banter..lol..props.
Missed step, put a open ended wrench on the power steering rack while taking off and torquing inner tie rod so you do not ruin steering rack. These are very thin wrenches that fit on a thin cut out on rack for this purpose.
Great video man. Helped me out, very clear and concise.
Your video really helped. It's my GO TO every time!
Excellent video, step by step makes it simple, thanks a lot!!!!

I hate working on suspension parts on my salt belt vehicles... I'm so envious.
During your video, I noticed you were from Hawaii by the way you were talking lol. I have an 02 Camry V4 SE and I’m going to change the inner and outer tie rods. I was wondering if I needed a new boot since my inner tie rods didn’t come with it, but your vid gave me the answer I was looking for. Right ons, thanks for the informal vid!
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!

V4s are only on motorcycles. Cars have inline 4cyl and boxer 4cyl, no V4s.
Thanks for your helpful video
Great video! Thanks
Great video bradda ... Aloha
Awesome video
You did a better job than the dealership.
Wow! Took a bit longer to complete though.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Aloha and take care.
very nice job and informative, I always wonder how to do that ....
Nice vid.. nice and sample..as long as you have that tool kit 😂 yessir
Good video!!
Great job thanks for sharing
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
I never use thread lock between the inner and outer, you make it that much more difficult to spin fir alignment
Good work
Thank man! I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment.
Aloha and take care
Nice work, thanks! A piece of paper folded in half (or quarters if a lot of space) works really well to shim a loose tool like that, too. It's very coarse and will hold it tight.
Dang, I should have thought of that one. Thanks for the input I will have to use that one next time.

Quick to the point no bs. DIY's should all be like this! thank you and are you open to suggestions? Could you maybe do a front strut Remove & Replace?

Never use thread locker on the inner or outer tie rods! The inner is being held in place by the washer bent over the flat and the outer tie rod has the nut to hold it in place! The outer needs to be able to move for alignment purposes...
I thought u needed red thread locker for the inner
I was thinking the exact same thing! No thread lock on anything, that's mostly just for beginners that are clueless on how things stay locked in: bent washer here, lock nut there, and cotter pin there
One of the best videos out there. Easy to follow. Great explanation. Can you please tell me the symptom of a bad tie rod end? Thanks.
Their's play in the wheel or you may hear noise when steering or bumps
This Bud's for you!
anyone know what the little hole is for on the inner tie rod main body? It is right by the shoulder and appears to be a dead end - maybe quarter inch deep and only on one side right by the threads on the shoulder. Great video. thanks!
Like this video, he doesn't talk shit. God Bless
They wanted to charge 400 for something that’s not even too hard to replace and I’m glad I could this video
I just did this same thing on a friend's 2006 Ram 1500 and my 2007 Camry. Neither of these vehicles had the washer on the inner tie rod. I noticed the new ones came with the washers, but didn't know what they were for. I did, however, use blue locktite when installing them. Anyone know what the deal is with the washers and why some vehicles don't have them? Great video by the way; I wish I saw this before I did my camry.
0:08 "Set the gear selector to Puh," which is right above "R"ace mode, right? Or is that "Type-R" mode... or is it actually "P" for park, and "R" for reverse?
Do you recommend OEM or any aftermarket brand of tie rods? Why are Toyota inner tie rods 4X more expensive?
For this model of Camry, i would Beck/Arnley after market brand , inner and outer tie rod are made in japan.
For my 2002 Camry, I used the tie rod tool set from Harbor Freight (perfect fit). The ones from Auto Zone and O'Reilly's did not fit
I'm glad it worked better for you then it did for me.
Thanks for watching and commenting!

The set you have has only 3 socket/sleeves the smallest being 1 3/16”. The 02 Camrys tie rod end is 29mm. I ran into the same problem here. The only place that had it was O’Reillys. It was an Evertough Master kit #27178.
L Cole I did the same thing I went to all the part stores none of had that fits on the inner tie rod the one I bought from Hebor Freight was perfect.
How much is the tie rod kit?
like someone states below, advanced auto had the set with the 3 socket/sleeves. the one that fits wasn't deep enough so after thinking the set at autozone doesn't suffice, i returned to them to get the set that actually works best(for me).
nice
May I ask does these tie rods have anything to do with my toe in toe out I'm having problems with my o tires wearing out and wondering if my tie rods are bad making my tire inside tire wear out quickly
yes that is a symptom of bad tie rods
@@TheNeonman39 thank you !!
TU. good detailed film. where did u get the toque information?
Sorry for the late reply.
From my Haynes Manuel.
I haven't seen anyone point out that you forgot to grease the tie rod, which is the whole point of the rubber boot.
KaiForce mentioned it, 2years before you did
I cringed when I saw the lock tight on the tie rod.
Does anyone know the torque spec for a 2011 Toyota Camry inner tie rod?
I would put loctite on the inner threads only
Would it be bad to wait to hammer that washer thingy down? I can’t really get under my car and I’d like to drive it to a buddy’s who has a lift
Sorry I'm not sure. I suppose if the drive isn't that far.
Hope u have changed control arms:-D
I’m trying to understand the purpose of bending the tabs are for? My manual does not have this step
I'm not a 100% sure but it might be so it does not back out under vibration and time.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!

Was there any symptoms of them being badd when driving down the road?
It had a clunking noise and the steering didn't feel right so when I had inspected it I saw it was worn.
iworkforbudlight Did it clunk when going straight or turning I have a slight clunk sometimes when I turn slowly also did your power steering boots have any sort of fluid or Greece in them I found a hole in mine and squeezed it and a lot of greasy fluid come out
Clunked when turning slightly and over bumps. No Greece came out of the Inner and Outer Tie Rods.
Could you be referring to the CV Steering shaft?
That has Greece inside the boots and also when worn makes a clunking noise when making turns.
@@leonarddroneview6947 could be a CV axle
@iworkforbudlight No grease coming out is a sign that your inner tie rods were long long gone. It should have grease in the boot. That's the point. The grease keeps the ball joint, that is part of the inner tie rod, from wearing out. Once the grease is gone, your inner tie rod wears out quickly. If you reuse your old boot and don't pack it with grease, expect to have to redo the entire job 6mo later... could be sooner.... also, if you really worked for budlight, you would have mentioned to drink a cold one at some point ;)
will this be different on a 2006 camry se?
Thomas Jaeger 2002/2006 same
Do you have to put grease in the tire rod.?
yeah he definitely forgot that - grease gun that sucker I just did it on a 2003
The boot would come with grease, if you bought it new. So, if you reuse your old boot, pack it with grease.
Do we need that special tool and where can I get one
That tool @ 3:31 will make things a lot easier. I rented it at my local parts store.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
I think you could use a crow's foot instead of an inner tie rod tool. Might save a few dinaro.
As in the actual bird or is that a tool?
A crows foot is a tool which you can buy. Although the tool used in the video, you can get as a free Rental from auto part stores in the US. So, you wouldn't be saving money if you have to buy a crow's foot, vs a free rental
Nice video mate 😊
Should your inner tie rods look different.. I just bought both sides.. and the inner rods looks different
I think if you purchase after market it might look different.
Just double check with the parts personnel.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Aloha and take care
how do you know how much it have to be sticking out?
That's why you count the turns it took to take off, and use the same amount of turns to go back on
Hey how many turns was it ???
Vehicle to Vehicle may be different.
I turned the same number it took to take off.
If your tire shakes like that back and forth, your bearings are probably shot too.
I cannot get my tie rod loosened at all I’ve tried everything including propane. Smh
How many turns you did?
Sorry I don't remember how many turns. If using original parts count the turns off and turn the same amount when installing.
If not original OE Toyota parts you will need to get the car aligned as soon as possible.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
My tie rods are good but my boot is ripped its not leaking anything at all...can I drive it like this still?
Eventually water, gravel, dirt, etc will get in there and wear it out, but it might last pretty long depending on what the conditions are like in your area. This video shows it pretty good how it wears out. You might want to just keep an eye on yours. Periodically, jack up the side with the torn/missing boot and try to shake the wheel from side to side, at 9 and 3 o'clock. If you have a lot of play, it's time to replace the inner tie rod and boot.

@@cmc778 but if no dirt or water or sand gets in my boot then im good right? The. Inside boot pretry clean the controls arm an cv axle protect the boot alot
@@cmc778 i got my breaks done 2 mo. Ago i check every tire around my car while it was in the air it was super right none of the tires move at all
@@cmc778 should be fine for another couple years right if no water or sand ever gets in there ill be good like i said when i got my breaks done every one of my tires where tight af i shit at every positions no wiggle at all
If you are still having an issue with the torn boot, this is a good video. You might ask around at some repair shops for a good price if you bring them the boot to replace. ua-cam.com/video/LG_p8fx6y2A/v-deo.html
How many turns for the outer tie rod???
Not sure, usually I count the number of turns coming off then the same amount putting on.
Need to do alignment after.
It's different on every vehicle. Count your turns when you get it off, so you know how many turns to go when you put it on.
What size is that inner tie rod nut??
Sorry I'm not sure what size.
@@MuddyDrivewayProductions oh dang, I'm searching for a inner tie rod tool, but I'd need a size reference
@@FRJ1982 If you have a crescent wrench large enough you might be able to use that measurement.
