I had a shop set my pinion angle while they did the alignment . They left a nut loose that caused the upper rod end to snap .
Got the part , heres the question : The nut on the top rod end tightens against the torque arm ? The directions make it sound like it tightens against the bracket to hold the rod end from moving .

A jam nut will always tighten against to keep the rod end/rod eye from coming loose or moving. In this case you tighten the jam nut on the torque arm to prevent the rod eye from backing out.

Hope that helps,
