Keep your steering linkage tight and responsive with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End 101-1873 (also written 1011873), a front outer tie rod end that links the steering system to the knuckle and lets the ball stud pivot as you steer and the suspension moves. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1972-1973 Toyota Carina, 1971-1981 Toyota Celica, 1970-1982 Toyota Corolla, 1974-1982 Toyota Corona, 1978-1984 Toyota Cressida, and 1984-1985 Toyota Van — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.
Worn tie rod ends can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and a clunk or looseness felt through the wheel. If a failed front outer tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Replacing tie rod ends typically calls for a follow-up wheel alignment.
