turn the tie rod, leave the ends where they are - one end has a left thread, the other is a right thread, so turning the tie rod one way will lengthen it, the other way will shorten it.

the clamps lock the rod onto the ends .just loosen them a little before you turn the rod

BEWARE if your adjusting l/cruiser tie rods if they appear to be very tight they are very easy to pop out of the Joint so be carefull l've popped 3 or 4 trying to wheel align them!!!! Chilli
