by cricketgo on 09/03/08 : novicemechanic, I don't have a step by step on it, not yet anyway and there will be some differences in vehicles. Generally when you remove a tie rod, you take the cotter pin out, remove the nut then use a tie rod separator to get it off. place it between the ball and the piece it bolts to and pound the tool with a hammer till it comes off. Then you screw the tie rod out, mark the threads before you unscrew it because the new one needs to be screwed in about the same distance due to wheel alignment. You'll probably have to get it aligned at the shop, but you need to be sure it is close enough to drive it. Stabilizer bar should be simple, probably just take the nuts loose and get it off, but not sure about it. Would have to see it. A lot of people do it at home its pretty basic to do, just some work. You will want it jacked up and blocked good as you have to get under it. ...
