Is this the right Dodge Stratus tie rod end for my car?
It is listed for the 1995-2006 Dodge Stratus in the front inner position. The Buyer's Guide tab shows every listed application.
What does a tie rod end do?
It is a pivoting link in the steering linkage. It passes steering-gear movement toward the wheels so they turn as you steer while the suspension moves.
What are signs of a worn tie rod end?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, extra play at the steering wheel, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause first, since other parts can produce similar symptoms.
How is the Dorman 541-295 built?
It has a factory-sealed, precision-forged housing that helps resist corrosion. Dorman states it is built to reduce the wear rate and for overall strength.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
Yes. Replacing a tie rod end can change the toe setting, so a wheel alignment is recommended afterward. Follow the vehicle service information for torque values and fastener reuse.
