Let's see how to replace the steering tie rod end of the Renault Trafic II: first of all, we need to lift the front part of the vehicle and remove the front wheels, which will allow us to see the steering tie rod end. Clean the part with a wire brush and WD-40, then make a mark with a marker between the tie rod and the steering tie rod end; pay close attention to the lock nut, as a rotation of the two pieces could change the vehicle's geometry; unlock the supporting nut of the tie rod end and then unscrew the tie rod end, counting the number of turns we are making to remove it: we will need it when reinstalling the new one, which we can find for example on E-Bay with the code 365211135321 at the price of 54.06 euros, with free delivery.

Put the tie rod end back in place, making the same number of turns as when removing it, then put the tie rod end back on the pin and tighten the nut to 37 Nm, the lock nut on the other side instead needs to be tightened to 53 Nm. We can put the wheels back on and lower the vehicle.
