Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End P/N:544-544
Keep steering response tight and predictable with the Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End (544-524), a front outer Ram 1500 tie rod that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2018 RAM 1500 and the 2019-2024 RAM 1500 CLASSIC. This outer tie rod end links the steering linkage to the wheel's steering knuckle, transmitting your steering input while pivoting to allow suspension travel — so a worn unit typically shows up as play in the steering, wandering, or uneven tire wear.
Each unit undergoes an industry-leading evaluation process to help ensure smooth, safe operation. If a failing outer tie rod is the cause of your loose steering, this Ram 1500 tie rod end replaces it at the front outer position. Sold individually; inspect the opposite side and have a wheel alignment performed after installation.
