How to replace the steering rack boot/bellow without needing an alignment afterwards on my Lexus IS300. This is the ziplock plastic bag grease trick to get the boot/bellow thru the tie-rod end. Worked better than I expected. This method will work on almost any Lexus/Toyota and all other cars with small tie-rods.

This definitely the channel for IS owners to learn. All the info you need and detailed examples. What more do you need

Thanks for posting. Videos like this help empower normal people doing some of the works themselves rather taking it to the shop and pay through the nose to have it done.

Yea...I’ve been at this car stuff for 25 years so just trying pass my knowledge to others. Back when I was 16, got hustled by shops and mechanics my first year or so of owning a car so after that I just learned to do every DIY. This was the late 90s so not much resources online for help.

Game changer for me. No realignment needed.

That little wire is a twist crimp to hold the small end of the boot in place. Twist it tight, cut the excess off

3:25 Tried to disconnect tie-rod-end by "banging" and it didn't work. --Let me tell you buddy, I've done a ton of these and it always100% works, but if you aren't hitting it hard enough you will need to buy the larger sledgehammer. (but I still like your video and I still like the tool you are using)

You never showed how to take the clamp off. I've been fighting with it for an hour 😜

Old clamp? I just cut it with a thin snip or sharp wire clippers.

@@TunerwithKids Gotcha yeah that would be easy 😁. My boot was still good and just reused the clamp. Figured it out just had to pry in between the two pieces where the claw grabs the metal opening. Pain in the butt, but got it :)
