ABSTRACT:
A one-piece tie rod adjuster comprises a cylindrical sleeve internally threaded as a turnbuckle to engage with corresponding threads of inner and outer tie rods and rotatable to adjust the overall length of the assembled linkage. The sleeve is provided with laterally spaced and circumferential beads which can be constricted and compressed after the linkage adjustment. As a result of bead compression the sleeve elongates and takes a permanent set to preload the threaded connection to secure the threaded assembly in adjusted position.
