7000 series tie rod ends

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I recently bought a tie rod assembly for my 7030 from a salvage yard. The ends on it seem to be in decent shape, and original style non-greasable. I am wondering if anyone has drilled and installed grease fittings on them, and was it successful? Or would I be better off packing them with some fresh grease, at this point they may last as long as I plan to use them.

	Mine were wore out. The new ones come with a grease fitting and nylon lock nut. The tube is solid, the old one was hollow. Parts ASAP wasn't too bad. If yours are reasonably tight force some lube in and go. They sell new boots. If your good at drilling and tapping go for it. Set your toe in Edited by whatscooking - 36 minutes ago at 7:48am

	What i saw when tackling this job was thankfully things wernt rusted together to bad but it still needed heat, iam going to need to get a better way of heating. So loosen everything up before you put it under. Secound, and I read the owners manual, if you have one hole showing on the axel you need one hole showing on the tube, per side I assume. Mine had one hole showing on one side and no hole showing on the other side with its sliding tube in a tube with tie rod screwed all the way in, tires ate up with tooo much toe in, one hole showing on axel. I freeded everything and set the holes and toe correctly. There is only about a inch and a quarter threads holding under that pinch nut on the left adjustable tie rod. Glad I'm not carrying saddle tanks on plowed ground, like I did long ago. Crazy side note, I have been watching and using this tractor so I know the steering cylinder wasn't leaking. After fighting this job on the tractor, I used a jackstand to lessen the brutally of the job, sledge hammer on the rubber tire to bring the hole back inline and the like the cylinder leaks so much I ordered a kit. Been driving it around an guess what no leaks, its still getting it. Edited by whatscooking - 7 minutes ago at 8:17am
