Keep steering tight and precise with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End 101-5051, a front inner tie rod end that connects the steering linkage and transmits steering input to the wheel. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2003 Toyota Highlander, and Beck/Arnley builds it to match OE form, fit, and function for foreign-nameplate applications. When play develops in a worn tie rod end, it can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and clunking or knocking through the steering when turning — if a failed inner tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
Front inner position. Sold individually; order the quantity your steering repair requires and replace worn linkage components as directed by the service procedure.
