Check torque pin of the spherical rod end

1. Disconnect the tie rod end and a hinge.
2. Repeatedly shake from side to side of the pin of the spherical rod end.

3. Screw on a pin of the spherical hinge on two nuts and measure torque. Torque: 0.5-2.5 N ??? m

4. If the torque exceeds the allowable value, replace the tie rod end.
5. If a torque well below the allowable value, the ball joint can be reused if it is not jammed and is not excessive backlash.
