Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES3471), the front right outer link that connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle and transmits your steering input to the wheel. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar and 1997-2000 Mercury Mystique. Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades intended for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
- Quick installation: secures to the vehicle with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin provided.
- Simple to service: includes a 180-degree SAE grease fitting so you can lube the joint with ease.
- Premium materials: used across the components for longer part life.
- Rigorously tested: extensive in-house and third-party durability testing for strength and performance.
If a worn ball stud in the original is the cause of play in your steering, this replaces it. Signs a tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and a clunk or knock when turning or crossing bumps.
