Restore precise, responsive steering to your BMW with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod Assembly 101-5866 (also written 1015866). This front assembly links the steering system to the front wheels, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2010 BMW X3 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine details. Worn or loose tie rods often show up as excessive play in the steering, uneven tire wear, or a wandering, imprecise feel on the road; if a failed tie rod is the cause, this assembly replaces it.
