Hitachi Astemo Steering Tie Rod P/N:TRE0003
Hitachi Astemo TRE0001 outer tie rod for the 2002-2005 Nissan Altima and other vehicles connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle at each wheel. It carries steering input to the wheel so the car turns where you point it.
Looseness in the steering, uneven tire wear or a wandering feel can mean an outer tie rod is worn. These signs alone do not prove the tie rod is at fault; an out-of-alignment wheel can cause similar signs. This listing is one tie rod; both sides are normally replaced together, one on each side of the axle.
This outer tie rod is a new, actual OE part and fits the 2002-2005 Nissan Altima and the 2005 Nissan Maxima.
