Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Mevotech MES406L tie rod end, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and the steering linkage is properly supported. Use the included castle nut and cotter pin to lock the tie rod end in place after torqueing to manufacturer specifications. Regularly lubricate the joint through the grease fitting to maintain smooth operation. Since this part is non-adjustable, alignment should be checked and corrected after installation to ensure proper steering geometry.
