I'm going to perform a small overhaul of my suspension/steering including replacing the outer tie rod ends. When the outer ends are removed, will I have easy access to replace the inner boots? Also, does the inner tie rod joint need to be re-packed with grease, or do I need only to replace the boot? thanks

 

yes, the boot will slide right off. no, you don't grease the inners. just replace them too so you don't have to do the whole job and alignment over later.

 

cool...thanks!
