Description

Restore tight, responsive steering with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES3493T), a front outer tie rod end that links the steering linkage to the knuckle and transmits your steering input to the wheel. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for trucks and SUVs like the 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500, the 2002-2006 Cadillac Escalade, the 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe and the 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500 — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full application and engine list.

Engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades, it's built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks, with Labor Saver designs and hardware to make installation faster.

Superior toughness: patented sintered bearings deliver longer-lasting performance.
Quick, easy installation: secure the ball joint with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin provided.
Simple to service: includes a 180-degree SAE grease fitting for easy lubrication.
Premium materials: used on all components for longer part life, backed by extensive in-house and third-party durability testing.

Worn tie rod ends often show up as loose or wandering steering, a knocking feel and uneven tire wear. If a failed front outer tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
