[SuperTuner12010]

Im installing my new (JDM)aftermarket tie rods,do I tighten the bolt all the way and if I do that the cotter pin whont go thrue the bolt as well?Can you help me please?

you are going to want to twist them on to about where they were before you took the old ones off.

The castle nut should be tightened down all the way, then put the cotter pin through.

Then go get an alignment since new tie rods will throw off the toe.

edit:
and the "new cb7" pic in your sig is actually a 5th gen

agreed, the alignment will be way off, so be careful while driving to the alignment shop.

and LOL to the fact its a 5th gen.

There was no 4th gen so I thought that the 5th gen would be close enough,Either way the alingment will be like 4 times better than it was before.Both wheels use to be butterflying really really bad.

Well, unless you get it aligned... they will just do it again.

New tie rods will do nothing without being properly aligned.

butterfly? are you talking about camber or are you talking about toe in-toe out?

a cool way to stay near spec is actually counting the turns to take it off. then after i fine tune it by placing the car down and seeing if its straight, if not i adjust a bit more...it helps especially trying to drive the the alignment shop. i do my own alignments at school so its no biggie for me, hehe.

Heres a quick DIY for an alignment...not to ride on forever, but incase you dont go to the alignment shop immediately.
