Tie rods are not the same, so the left-hand thrust indicated by the letter ?�L?�, and the right - the letter ?�R?�. Location labels shown in Fig. 262. If during the checks described below you set that the tie rods are defective, they can be replaced without removing the steering mechanism: - Hinge covers must not be damaged; - Start the engine. Turn the front wheels in any direction, hold the hinge tie rod arm, rotate the steering wheel from side to side (operation requires two people). If you notice an increase in the gap, replace the hinge; - Lift the car in front and pull strongly tie rod back and forth. If the hinge feels loose, replace the hinge; - In the same way, check the internal hinge. To do this, remove the seal of the steering. If the test of the internal hinge gap is found, it will completely replace tie rod.
