In the process of installing a steering kit and my mind is programmed for lefty loosey.
Facing the Tie-Rod from front of vehicle does the jam nut rotate counter clockwise to free.....it's tight but if i know proper rotation to free it, I'll get it.
Thanks
 
If your steering was made by somebody who knew the standards, left hand threads will have a groove cut around the tubing to indicate as such.

Thanks bud, finally got the steering on and aligned.
I'm telling you, if it wasn't for seized nuts and bolts, my daughter's could be ace mechanics.
