Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the outer tie rod on this 2004 Volkswagen Jetta. We show you on the passenger's side, but the driver's side is a similar procedure. The items you'll need for this are a new outer tie rod from 1AAuto.com, a 17mm socket and ratchet, 19 and 22mm wrenches, 6 and 7mm Allen wrenches or bits, torque wrench, jack, and jack stands, and depending on the condition of your vehicle, you may also need a hammer. It's important to note that after you do any work on your inner or outer tie rods that you should get a professional alignment done after the procedure.
Start off using a 7mm Allen wrench and just prying out these lug nut caps. I'll fast-forward as he does the rest of those. You'll notice that this lug nut is a little different than the others. You're going to need a key to remove it, and that key can be found right here next to your jack stand in your trunk. You can just push it into that lug nut, and now it removes just like a regular lug nut. If you don't have air-powered tools, you're going to want to loosen up these lug nuts, then raise the vehicle and remove them the rest of the way. Once the lug nuts are removed the wheel will pull right off. On the back of your wheel, right here, is your outer tie rod. You want to measure from right here to the end of your outer tie rod, and write down that measurement. Then using a 22mm wrench, just loosen up this nut right here. Use a 6mm Allen bit or wrench up through the bottom of your tie rod with a 19mm wrench to loosen up and remove that nut. We'll just fast-forward as Don does this. Our tie rod lifts up and out. Typically, it will put up a bit more of a fight, so you just want to hammer right her on the knuckle, and then you should be able to pull it up and out too. Now, just remove it from the inner tie rod buy just twisting it off. We'll fast-forward as Don does this.
On the left is the old outer tie rod. On the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they're going to fit exactly the same. Twist your new outer tie rod into place. Keep twisting it so that it's tight on there. Then push it straight down into the knuckle. Replace the nut. Using your Allen wrench and your wrench, you want to tighten up that nut. Then, torque this to about 50 foot-pounds. Then measure, make sure it's the same distance as what you had before. If it is, tighten up this nut.
Push the wheel back into place and line up the holes for the lug bolts. Then, replace the lug bolts. If you don't have air-powered tools, you want to tighten these preliminarily, lower the vehicle, and then tighten them the rest of the way. Then lower the vehicle, and torque each lug nut to 100 foot-pounds in a crossing pattern. Replace your lug nut caps and you're all set.

Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video we're going to show you how to replace a front lower ball joint on this 2004 Volkswagen Jetta. We show you on the passenger's side, but the driver's side is the same procedure. The items you'll need for this are a new ball joint from 1AAuto.com, 16, 17, and 18mm socket and ratchet; 13, 18, and 19mm wrenches, 7mm Allen bit, locking pliers, torque wrench, jack and jack stands, and a hammer.
Start off by using a 7mm Allen bit, and just prying out these lug nut caps. We'll fast forwards as he does the rest of those. You'll notice that this lug nut is a little different than the others. You're going to need a key to remove it, and that key can be found right here next to your jack stand in your truck. You can just push it into that lug nut, and now it removes just like a regular lug nut. If you don't have the benefit of air power tools, then loosen up the lug nuts while the vehicle is on the ground. Raise and support the vehicle and them remove them the rest of the way. Once the lug nuts are removed, the wheel will pull right off.
Your lower control arm is located right here, and you want to start off by removing these two 18mm bolts. You're going to see on the first one we use a socket and ratchet and a piece of pipe for some extra leverage to get it going. For this bolt, you're going to need both hands to remove, so first just break it free. Then you're going to want to put an 18mm wrench on the top of it. Then use your socket and ratchet for the bolt itself. We'll just fast forward as Don does this. Next, remove this 16mm bolt in your sway bar link. At the top of this ball joint there's a 13mm nut, and you want to go ahead and remove that. To do that, you want to put some locking pliers in between the gasket on the ball joint and the wheel knuckle. Using a 13mm wrench remove the nut at the top. We'll just fast forward as Don does this. Once that's removed just pull the wheel away, and then pull the control arm down and out. Next, remove these three 13mm bolts that hold the ball joint in place. Once those are removed your ball joint pulls right out.
On the left is your old ball joint, on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they're going to fit exactly the same. Take your new ball joint, and you can see we're using a new control arm just because of the condition of our older one. You just put that bracket into place and then put the bolts up through the bottom. We'll just fast forward as Don does this, and then tightens those up. Then torque each of these to 40 foot-pounds.
Push the lower control arm back into place. You may need a hammer to help push it back. Then put one of your bolts in, and if doesn't fit, hammer it back a little further. Push the bolt in all the way, and then put the nut on the other side of it. Just make sure the other side lines up, push that bolt back into place. Now you can line up your ball joint and push that up into the wheel knuckle. Then just replace that nut at the top of the ball joint. We'll fast forward as Don tightens up those two bolts and that nut at the top of the ball joint. The nut on our new ball joint was 19mm. Now torque those two 18mm bolts to 70 foot pound. Replace that 16mm bolt and your sway bar link, and tighten it up. Push the wheel back into place and line up the holes for the lug bolts. Then replace the lug bolts. If you don't have air powered tools, you want to tighten these preliminarily, lower the vehicle and then tighten them the rest of the way. Then lower the vehicle and torque each lug nut to 100 foot pounds in a crossing pattern. Replace your lug nut caps and you're all set.

Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video we're going to show you how to replace a sway bar link on this 2004 Volkswagen Jetta. We show you on the passenger side but the driver's side is the same procedure. You'll need a new sway bar link from 1AAuto.com, a 16mm socket and ratchet and a 16mm wrench. A jack and jack stands are recommended but optional. You can get to the sway bar link just by turning your wheels but it's usually pretty difficult to get in there and get the leverage you need to get the bolts out, so most likely you'll want a jack and jack stands to help you get underneath the car and get better leverage to get the bolts loose.
Your sway bar link is located right here and in the same spot on the other side. It's held in with two 16-mm bolts and the best way to remove the top one is with the 16-mm wrench on one side and a 16-mm socket and ratchet on the other. The lower one doesn't even need a wrench to hold it. You can do this without jacking up your car. Make sure it's on a flat surface and turn the wheels all the way to one side and you'll be able to access the links. Once it's removed, the sway bar link pulls right off.
On the left is the old sway bar link. On the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. Take your new sway bar link and push it into place and just twist the bolt in to hold it in and then twist the upper bolt in. Replace the nut and then just tighten those up.
