Tie Rod Die Size and where to order for $14

I ordered this from www.mcmaster.com It is a M16x1.5 Die, part # is 2573A68 Cost was $14.56

Hope this helps someone in the future. My truck is a 2007. Thanks to Bankrpt for telling me what size it was.

no big deal, I didnt have time to do it this weekend anyway. But hopefully this thread will help someone if they search and for $14 I doubt you could find it anywhere cheaper. Headed to the garage now to cut some threads, I'll let you know how it works out.

The steering wheel and the tires sit straight again!!! They looked like this before \ / now they look like this l l Of course this is just the "eyeball" alignment but I guarentee it is 99% better than it was. Curious to see how it drives tomorrow morning, couldnt take it for a test drive tonight cause my daughter is asleep.
