Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End P/N:544-544
Help correct loose, wandering steering with the Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End 544-326, a front right outer tie rod end that serves as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2013 Mazda 3, 2009-2013 Mazda 3 Sport, and 2006-2010 and 2012-2017 Mazda 5. A tie rod end links the steering system to the wheel's knuckle, transmitting steering input so the front wheel turns and stays properly aimed. If a worn tie rod end is behind your play, clunking, or uneven front-tire wear, this unit replaces it.
This is the front right outer position; verify it matches the corner you're servicing before installing. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment details.
