Default A couple inner tie rod Q's

Hi All,

What is the torq on my inner tie rods, my Haynes doesn't list a spec.

Since i have to cut the innee clamp off , what did you use to re clamp it on? I was thinking of a wide zap strap(tie rap) or lock wire? Gear clamp??

Your thoughts?

Torque spec is 50 ft-lbs. On mine I just used hose clamps, the worm gear kind. They have been on the steering rack almost 3 years now, no problems with them at all.
