Using a hexagonal die nut will cut metal off the tie rod, so by using a split die, you can open the die to the correct width to be able to clean up the threads. If metal is removed from the thread, then, it could be looser in the eye bolt, which could lead to failure.</div> <div>                                  </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
