Tie Rod Relocators

Post by mcarlson11 »

I have my truck lowered, but I have yet to figure out how the tierod end relocators are supposed to bolt up. I have the AIM relocators ("C" shaped)
This is an F250 with disc front end. I need someone with lowered beams to post a picture of draw something.

This is what they look like. They have no instructions.

My original tie rods go into the spindle arm from the top. The hole is tapered so they can only go that way. I can rotate the drivers side tierod so it can go up into the spindle arm using the relocators, but not the passenger side becuase it is integral with the drag link.I have tried everywhich way possible, and when using the tie rod relocators, the tie rod "rod" will always be in a position to go right into the radius arm.

On the relocators, the tie rod is supposed to go into the fat part. and im guessing the part directly above that bolts to the spindle arm. I dont know what the other little tab is with a hole is for. They came with a smaller bolt to go through this as well.

That looks like the AIM Industries piece. Take a look at this page:

Just curious if you ever figured out the issue with the tie rod relocators?
