Hello,
Trying to adjust toe / alignment on my 96 tracker, 2WD manual.
I'm having a lot of trouble loosening the locknuts on the tie rod / tie rod ends.
Without these locknuts loosened, I'm unable to adjust the tie rod connector sleeve.
Unfortunately, I only have 2 spanner wrenches that are large enough for the locknuts. Even with the wheel removed, no amount of force I use am I able to loosen the locknuts. I sprayed with WD40 and still unable.
Any advise on how I can loosen the locknuts so I can adjust the toe?
Also - for adjustment, is it okay if the toe is adjusted with the front end off the ground? Or should i make sure the car is down on the suspension before I adjust the tie rod connector sleeve?
Thank You
Sina
