Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Beck/Arnley Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End 101-3969, the link that transmits your steering input to the front wheel and allows the tie rod to move with the suspension. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement across a range of foreign-nameplate applications, including the 1985-1988 Chevrolet Nova, 1998-2002 Chevrolet Prizm, 1989-1997 Geo Prizm, 1990-1991 Lexus ES250, 2004-2006 Scion xA and xB, 1987-1991 Toyota Camry, 1986-1999 Toyota Celica, 1985-2002 Toyota Corolla, 2003-2005 Toyota Echo, 1996-2003 Toyota RAV4, and 1987-1990 Toyota Tercel — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

  • OE form, fit and function: engineered to match the original equipment part for the listed applications.
  • Corrosion protection: coated or plated to resist corrosion.
  • Pre-greased ball joint: the ball joint is greased and ready to install.
  • Easy service: a full ball stud plus an easy-access wrench flat lets you use a socket for simple installation and removal.

Worn tie rod ends often show up as play or looseness in the steering, uneven tire wear, or clunking when turning; if a failed outer tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Replace both sides together for balanced steering.
