ABSTRACT:
A device for mounting/detaching a tie rod of a vehicle steering arrangement includes an outer tube having a first end with a threaded outer periphery and a second end, an inner tube rotatably received in the outer tube and having a first end partially received in the first end of the outer tube and a second end extending beyond the second end of the outer tube, and an operative member securely attached to the second end of the inner tube for rotating the latter. A chuck is received in the first end of the inner tube for releasably holding an end of a tie rod. A sleeve is mounted around the first end of the outer tube and includes an actuating member in one end thereof for effecting opening and closing of the chuck and an inner periphery having a threaded section which engages with the threaded first end of the outer tube, such that when the outer tube rotates, the sleeve moves on the threaded first end of the outer tube along an axial direction of the outer tube to move the chuck between an opened status and a closed status.
