Watch out! ...... CRUNCH!

[Heysüß]

well, I have all the parts waiting but now I've got this steering rack thing to figure out.

Quick question:

I ordered the 2.75 lock to lock z3 steering rack. it's not coming with the complete tie rod assembly just the innners.

So my question is what fits on the outer side? stock z3 tie rod ends? Should I get something beefier since I'm running without power steering? thanks for your input!

You can run regular e36 outers. Just make sure you get the right locking nut for them.

Will give said sister herpes and crab combo for $50 and a 20 piece chicken McNugget meal. Large sized.

^^^ haha not sure.

and one more problem. the driver's side tie rod end is stripped or something. the nut came loose but now it's just spinning and not coming out, I already looked to see if the bolt was moving along with the nut and it's not. I'm considering just dremeling the bolt that is part of the tie rod end out and hammering up the bolt through the hole since the new tie rod ends are on the way anyway.

Any tips, suggestions, or smart remarks?

They're not loose once you get the nut off, take a pickle fork or a balljoint extractor and pop it off.

[Heysüß]

yeah the nut is still on the bolt, the passenger's side nut came off easy, that one is ready to pop out but the other side's bolt is the one that doesn't want to come off. It just spins and spins but doesn't come completely out, and like I said, the bolt itself isn't moving along with it so I have no clue what that means. Is the bolt's thread completely gone or something?

put a jack under the balljoint. Apply pressure and zip off with impact.

[Heysüß]

^^^ I don't have an impact gun, I may be able to get my hands on one BUT I already did the jack under ball joint and applied a lot of downward pressure while trying to loosen the bolt and still, nothing happened. the nut turns and turns and the bolt stays in place and nothing else happens.

use a wrench. check and see if the bolt is turning with the nut.

Sell it to me and I'll fix it ;)

no. the bolt is NOT turning with the nut. That's why i'm considering grinding it out

[Davenandez]

same thing happened to me... just grind the fucker off and continue
