Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End P/N:543-961
Keep steering input traveling cleanly from the steering wheel to the road with the Dorman - OE Solutions Tie Rod End 543-506, a front inner steering linkage component that directly replaces the original equipment tie rod on specific vehicle applications. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2015-2019 Hyundai Sonata, 2016-2018 Kia Optima and 2017-2020 Kia Cadenza. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
As a front inner steering tie rod end, it carries steering movement from the steering gear toward the outer tie rod end and wheel, helping the wheels follow your steering input. If worn play at this joint is behind loose or wandering steering, this part replaces it, making it a practical choice for a 2015-2019 Hyundai Sonata tie rod replacement.
Signs a tie rod end may need replacing include loose or vague steering, clunking when turning, the vehicle wandering, and uneven tire wear. A wheel alignment is recommended after installation.
