Note: It is more convenient to work on a lift. You can also perform it on a car mounted on reliable supports.
Replacement of a tip is shown on an example of the right steering draft, a tip of the left draft replace similarly.

4. While holding the tip of the ball pin against turning, loosen the nut that secures the ball pin to the suspension steering knuckle arm.
Helpful Hint: If fasteners are heavily soiled, clean them with a wire brush and treat with a light penetrating lubricant.
5. Establish a puller of spherical hinges and press out a finger from a boss of a rotary fist.
6. Finally turn away a nut of fastening of a spherical finger and take a finger from an aperture in the lever of a rotary fist.
Warning: Replace the self-locking nuts of the tie rod pins with new ones each time the joint is disassembled.
7. Turn away a tip from steering draft.
Note: When unscrewing the tie rod end, count the number of revolutions so that the wheel alignment does not change when a new tie rod end is installed.
8. Install a new tip in the reverse order of removal, screwing it onto the steering rod by the number of revolutions calculated during removal, and tighten the locknut to 12.5 Nm.
9. Check and, if necessary, from - adjust the angles of the front wheels (see «Checking and adjusting wheel alignment»).
