What Are These Wires Hanging From My Car 2009 Colbalt

If you had only your musical instrument and its accessories, how would you beat someone in a fight?

I can play an array of wind instruments. Some better than others. Here's what's up:I choose FRENCH HORN. I would attempt to un-wind the entire thing with my 20 minutes prep time. That's 12 feet of metal right there (I've got a single F horn, so sue me, Horn purists). That's 12 feet of straight blowing power, once unwound.After it is properly unwound, I would strategically use the springs from the rotary valves placed in the wide part of my disassembled horn to be blown straight at the enemy. Aiming for the eyes, of course. Those springs are pointy and will hurt like a bitch in the eyes!Then, when the enemy advances after my spring-in-the-eyes attack, I will use the “horn” part of the tube (the wide end) to stuff my enemy's head into. I will hold that sucker down until the end. My horn will defeat the enemy, and the enemy will never have a head the same shape again. I'm going to bruise and re-shape that motherfucker's head permanently. And THEN, when the head is properly stuck, I'll attempt to coil the unwound horn around the enemy's body like a goddamn Anaconda. So it'll be there for a while, keeping my enemy properly restrained.Don't fuck with brass players. We are ruthless.Okay, I'm pretty violent inside my head — be thankful this is hypothetical. Unless it's not….. And in that case, MUAHAHAHA! Y'all better not get my horny. Apparently it's dangerous.

How much does it cost to replace a tie rod?

As with many of the More Useful Answers already left here (some are just snide remarks from people who feel better about themselves when talking down to others!) it really depends on the vehicle & the specific part in question.There are “Tie-Rods” & “Tie-Rod Ends”, then there are Inner & Outer Ends, also Left & Right. So, you must know which component needs to be replaced. Once you have established which one you need, most retail auto parts supply stores have online websites to assist you with the part lookup.If you are mechanically-inclined, you should be able to replace the part yourself, come away from the job with a sense of accomplishment & some extra coin in your pocket! Of course there will be Tools required, Direction & your Time. (Purchase a Haynes or Chilton’s Service Manual for your vehicle… there are also Videos Online to assist you visually.)Unless there has been Physical Damage (Car Accident, Curb Collision) & your vehicle steering is out of alignment, requiring Alignment Service at a Repair Shop, you can avoid this added expense if you make the repairs yourself; When I am replacing a Tie-Rod End on a vehicle which is within Alignment Standards for Steering & Tracking, I clean the threaded areas of the rod with a Wire Brush to remove any buildup or corrosion, then apply a light coat of Aerosol Spray Paint to the area. Once dry, I will remove the part to be replaced, leaving a definite line so I know the reassembly limit for the new component. With everything reconnected & properly torqued, job is complete & no alignment is required.Bottom Line: Unless you are working on an Exotic (Ferrari, Porsche, Rolls/Bentley, BMW, etc) a single Outer Tie-Rod End should cost you no more than $40. Most newer cars have Power-Assist Steering Racks & the Inner Tie-Rods are contained within the Steering Rack, making it much more expensive & labor-intensive, meaning it should be replaced by a shop unless you are an accomplished technician.Best of luck, I hope this is helpful!
