Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End (P/N 101-5518), an OE-quality Mazda 3 tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle and transfers steering input to the front wheels. This front inner unit drops in as a direct replacement for the 2004-2013 Mazda 3 and the 2006-2010 and 2012-2015 Mazda 5 — see the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact engine and year.

Built by Beck/Arnley for foreign-nameplate applications:

  • OE form, fit and function: matches the original part so it installs like the factory piece.
  • Corrosion protection: coated or plated to resist corrosion.
  • Pre-greased ball joint & full ball stud: ready to install for smooth articulation.
  • Easy-access wrench flat: lets you use a socket for easier installation and removal.

Worn tie rod ends can show up as excess play in the steering, a wandering feel, uneven tire wear, or a knocking sensation through the wheel. If a failing tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Tie rod ends are sold individually and wear as a pair, so inspect the opposite side and replace both together when needed for balanced steering. Have the front end aligned after installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does this Beck/Arnley steering tie rod end fit?

It's a direct replacement for the 2004-2013 Mazda 3 and the 2006-2010 and 2012-2015 Mazda 5. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct fit for your exact year and engine.

Where is this tie rod end located?

This is the front inner tie rod end, connecting the steering linkage to the steering knuckle to transfer steering input to the front wheels.

Is the ball joint already greased?

Yes. The ball joint comes pre-greased and features a full ball stud, so it's ready to install.

Do I need to replace both sides at once?

Tie rod ends are sold individually. They wear as a pair, so it's good practice to inspect the opposite side and replace both together for balanced, even steering.

What are signs a tie rod end may need replacing?

Common signs include excess play or looseness in the steering, a wandering feel, uneven tire wear, or a knocking sensation. Diagnose the cause first; if the tie rod end is at fault, this replaces it.
