I have a 86 Honda 250 Fourtrax and my friend hit a tree and busted the tie rod end and bent the tie rod, i ordered new parts and put them on and now it will turn sharp to the right but it will only go about halfway to the left. it looks like the tir rods are the same length. i need help this seems like a simple issue but i am stumped :confused:

Check your stem. It sounds like it may have twisted.

How would I check it? Twisted or bent?

Look closely at it, probably gonna have to take it off.

On a sport quad, it's easy to see if you look at it straight down from top. But, on a utility the plastic may block the view. You'll probably have to take it off like CJM said.
