A strut rod may need replacing if you notice clunking or knocking from the suspension over bumps, wandering or vague steering, uneven tire wear, or an alignment that won't stay in spec. If a worn front right strut rod is the cause, this part replaces it. Have the suspension inspected first, because other worn components can cause the same symptoms. This strut rod is sold individually for the front right position, and replacing both sides together is recommended. A wheel alignment check after installation is also recommended.
