Help keep your steering tight and responsive with the Dorman - OE Solutions Tie Rod End 543-056, a front outer unit that directly replaces the original on the 1995-2005 Chevrolet Cavalier and 1995-2005 Pontiac Sunfire. The outer tie rod end connects the tie rod to the steering knuckle. It carries steering movement to the front wheel while pivoting as the suspension travels. Dorman runs this steering tie rod end through an evaluation process it calls industry-leading, aimed at smooth, safe operation.

  • Direct replacement: takes the place of the original equipment tie rod end on the listed applications.
  • Durable design: the housing is factory-sealed and precision-forged, and it resists future corrosion.
  • Engineered for reliability: built to decrease wear rate and support overall strength.
  • Quality backing: supported by a team of professional engineers and quality control specialists in the United States.

Signs a tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, extra play in the steering wheel, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. Other steering and suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. Plan on a wheel alignment after installation. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
