Help keep your steering linkage tight and responsive with the Dorman - OE Solutions T2077RD tie rod end, a rugged-duty front right outer unit built for maximum load absorption and durability. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1980-1996 Ford F-150, 1980-1996 Ford F-250 and 1983-1992 Ford Ranger, and serves as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.

This steering tie rod end links the tie rod to the steering knuckle. It passes steering input to the wheel, and its ball stud lets the joint pivot as the wheels turn and the suspension moves. Dorman builds it with these features:
- Rugged-duty construction: designed to maximize absorption and durability for hard-working vehicles.
- Superior ball stud: a hardened ArmourGrade stud with a large, highly polished ball.
- Greaseable integrated bearing: the serviceable IntegraFit bearing comes pre-loaded with I.C.E. synthetic grease.
- Premium corrosion resistance: a WeatherShield external coating helps resist corrosion.
Signs that a tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, extra play at the steering wheel, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the steering and suspension first. If a worn front right outer tie rod end is the cause, this part replaces it. A wheel alignment check is recommended after installation.
