Quick question: Are the tie rods the same on 2WD and 4WD on half-tons, or are they different?
Reason I ask is, the inner tie rods on my latest K1500 are worn pretty bad and need replaced. I was looking on Rockauto and noticed two things:
1. On 2WD models, there's a castle nut and on 4WD models, it's just a regular nut.
2. The stud on the inner for 4WD applications seems to be a bit shorter than the 2WD models, or at least that what it looks like in the photos. Below are the ones I'm looking at. Let me know your thoughts.
