Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End P/N:544-544
Tie the steering linkage back to the wheel with the Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End 544-615, a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX (All engines). A tie rod end links the steering system to the steering knuckle and transmits your steering input to the front wheel, so a worn joint is a common cause of vague, wandering steering.
Mounting hardware is included (2 nuts); there is no grease fitting, as the joint is factory-sealed. Backed by engineers and quality-control specialists in the United States. Country of origin: China. If a failed tie rod end is the cause of loose steering or uneven tire wear, this part replaces it.
Interchange: Manufacturer part number 544-615 (also 544615).
