tech a says that to properly check a tie - rod end, the technician should twist the tie - rod end, and any rotational movement means the joint is bad. tech b says that when checking a tie rod, any side - to - side movement in the joint means the tie rod is bad. who is correct? select one: a. tech a b. tech b c. both a and b d. neither a nor b
Answer
Brief Explanations:
When checking a tie - rod end, rotational movement is normal as the joint is designed to rotate. Side - to - side movement (play) in the joint is an indication that the tie - rod end is bad. Tech A is incorrect because rotational movement is not a sign of a bad joint. Tech B is correct as side - to - side movement in the joint means the tie - rod is bad.
