Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End P/N:101-8511
Keep steering tight and predictable with the Beck/Arnley Steering Tie Rod End 101-7656, a front outer tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle and helps transmit driver input to the front wheels. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2018 Acura RDX — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
A worn tie rod end can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or a clunk or rattle from the front end while turning. If a failed front outer tie rod end is the cause, this unit replaces it. Tie rod ends work as a set, so inspect the opposite side and have the front end aligned after installation.
