FAQ
What does the inner tie rod end do?The inner tie rod connects the steering rack or steering linkage to the outer tie rod and ultimately the steering knuckle. It allows steering input from the steering wheel to turn the wheels while maintaining proper alignment.
What are symptoms of a bad tie rod end?
Common signs include steering play, clunking noises when turning, uneven tire wear, and wandering steering. Worn tie rods are also a major contributor to the well-known Dodge Ram "death wobble."
Is the MOOG DS1464 greasable?
Yes. The DS1464 features a greaseable socket design allowing fresh lubricant to flush contaminants and extend service life.
Is this a direct replacement for factory tie rods?
Yes. The MOOG DS1464 is a direct-fit replacement for OEM inner tie rod ends and installs using factory mounting locations.
Does replacing tie rod ends improve steering?
Yes. New tie rod ends restore steering precision, eliminate looseness in the linkage, and help ensure proper front-end alignment and tire wear.
