NX4510 tie rods

JimR · Nov 12, 2023

Looking for aftermarket inner and outer tie rods for my tractor. Has anyone changed theirs out yet.(update) Found a pair of Kioti tie rods on Ebay for $215.00 for the pair with free shipping. Kioti is $329.09 each. Today is my lucky day.

Hey Jim. Are you having problems with your tie rods? Curious why you are going to replace them. Thanks for your time.

Hi Dave, Both of my outer tie rods were never greased when made by ????? for Kioti. When I noticed play in my steering I took them out and popped the rubber boots off of the outers. They both were rusted up which caused them to wipe out prematurely. Now the inners are worn out. They were greased. I did check them after finding out that the outers were never greased. I did install grease fittings in the outers and tightened up the ball ends with a press. That was at least 2 years ago.

Ok, thanks for the info. I'll have to check mine as well. My loader valves were like that. No grease.
