Mevotech Supreme Steering Tie Rod End P/N:MES2198R
Keep your steering tight and responsive with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES3386RL), a front outer tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to the knuckle and transmits steering input to turn the front wheels. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1992-2000 Mitsubishi Montero and the 1997-2004 Mitsubishi Montero Sport — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full engine-level list.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. Labor Saver™ designs, tools and hardware are intended to make the job faster.
If worn tie rod ends are causing loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear or play in the linkage, replacing the affected front outer end restores the proper connection. Have an alignment performed after installation.
What does this tie rod end do?
This front outer tie rod end links the steering linkage to the knuckle and transmits steering input to turn the front wheels, pivoting on a ball socket as the wheels turn and travel.
What vehicles does the MES3386RL fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1992-2000 Mitsubishi Montero and the 1997-2004 Mitsubishi Montero Sport. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact vehicle and engine.
Is mounting hardware included?
Yes. Mevotech provides the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin needed to secure the tie rod end to the vehicle during installation.
What are the signs a tie rod end may need replacing?
Loose or wandering steering, a clunk from the steering, uneven or rapid tire wear, and play in the linkage can indicate a worn tie rod end. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
Yes. Replacing a tie rod end changes toe settings, so have a wheel alignment performed afterward to protect tire wear and steering feel.
