Restore tight, predictable steering feel with the Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End 543-651. It directly replaces the original equipment tie rod on the 2005-2009 Subaru Legacy and 2005-2009 Subaru Outback (all engines), linking the steering to the steered wheel so your steering-wheel inputs turn the wheels accurately.

  • Threaded steel housing: precision-forged, factory-sealed steel housing with a powder-coated finish to help resist corrosion.
  • Polymer bearing & polychloroprene dust boot: the boot helps keep contaminants out of the bearing joint.
  • Threaded, male-stud design: male thread at both ends with a threaded type for adjustment during installation.
  • Hardware included: ships with one mounting nut; no grease fitting is included.

A worn tie rod end can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or a knock when turning; if a failed tie rod end is the cause, this part replaces it.
