Be prepared to tack weld your jam nuts on the tie rod. Because the heims are not in sync the ram movement will loosen them. I tightened mine with a 16" adjustable wrench and a snipe and still came loose. Next option was tacking jam nuts  :driving:

dont tack them on. Drill and tap the nut for a 1/16 grub screw that tightens onto thread of the rod end. Alternatively, thread lock and a jam nut.

Refusing to fit in or comply.

Easy is not worth anything.
