Inspection of the Tie Rod
p3 mm 33.02
Inspect the tie-rod ends as follows:
- Shake the cross-tube. A loose fit, or movement between the tapered shaft of the ball and the cross-tube socket members indicates that the tie-rod end assembly must be replaced.
- The threaded portion of the tie-rod end assembly must be
inserted all the way into the cross-tube split for adequate clamping.
See Fig.. Replace the components if
this cannot be done. For instructions, see of
the Cascadia™ Workshop Manual.
Note: Shown without pinch bolt to provide clarity.
