Has anyone changed inner tie rod ends on there is200?

I've changed everything now from steering rack bushes,both lower control arm bushes and outer tie rod ends and all ball joints and the only possible thing that can still be slightly knocking when steering can be the inner tie rods?

****** hell are you still chasing that!!

I've done it on other Toyotas but not on an IS200. It can't be that hard though, they're all pretty similar...

Have you taken a look at the universal joint between column and rack?

yeah the joint looks ok,but it seems to be excess noise coming from the balljoints on the inner rod ends.i need to get the rubber gators of to have a proper look though but the parts are only £28 off ebay and as thats the only thing i havent changed its worth a shot.

@rob the lower control arm bushes were knackered anyway and the play in them were way over excessive

ok, i had a good look at mine few weeks ago and they also look shot, i have the hardrace bushes sitting here, just need the time to do it.

i did in the past have a squeek when turning the steering wheel, that went away and now i have the knock.

For the gaitors i seem to remember the clips are re useable - DOUBLE CHECK ! if so they are clic or clic -R clamps - but you need a special set of pliers for them. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BERGEN-Profess...415c8fd230
i have a set of these and they are decent quality.

i have the car on the ramp this morning so ill try narrow down where the knock is from and let you know later.


the tie rods @28... i have ordered quite a bit from that guy and the parts are perfect, no issues at all, i had stuff in my hand 3 days after ordering it - excellent.

ok i found the source of my knocking - its the bushing at the inner of the toe control arm RH side. the movement is very very small and hardly noticable but when the arm is braced with a lever the sound stops.

for the tie rod gaiters, you can re use the clips but have new ones or alternates at hand just in case as they are a PITA to re install.
