Sharpen up loose, wandering steering with the Dorman - OE Solutions Front Inner Steering Tie Rod End 543-498 — the right fix when a worn inner tie rod end is the cause. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson and the 2005-2010 Kia Sportage.

Mounted at the front inner position, this tie rod end links the steering gear to the outer tie rod and steering linkage, transmitting your steering input to the front wheel while allowing the suspension to travel and the wheel to turn. Its stud pivots inside the housing so steering angle and ride motion are accommodated together.

  • Position: Front inner steering tie rod end.
  • Direct-fit: Designed to install on the listed Hyundai and Kia applications.
  • Signs it may need replacing: loose or vague on-center steering, front-end play, a knocking feel through the wheel, or uneven tire wear.

Have the steering and suspension diagnosed to confirm a worn inner tie rod end before replacing, and have the alignment checked afterward.
