Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End Kit P/N:101-8126
Restore precise steering response with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End Kit 101-7856 (also written 1017856), an inner tie rod end that ties the steering rack to the outer linkage and transmits your steering input to the wheels. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2011 Ford Ranger, 2001-2009 Mazda B2300, 1998-2001 Mazda B2500, 1998-2007 Mazda B3000 and 1998-2009 Mazda B4000 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Worn inner tie rod ends can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or a clunk when turning. If a failed inner tie rod end is the cause, this kit replaces it. Have an alignment performed after installation.
