STEERING : LINKAGES : TIE ROD ASSEMBLY

on certain fire trucks with tandem steer axles. the trw tie-rod on the rear-most axle of a tandem axle is restrained from rotational movement by a pair of anti-rotation seals located at the ball socket joints. these anti-rotation seals will compress over time. if the anti-rotation seal allows too much motion, the seals can deteriorate, allowing contact between the ball socket and the ball shaft. this metal-to-metal contact will transmit forces into the tie-rod tube, causing fatigue failure initiating at the root of the female treads.
