Mevotech Supreme Steering Tie Rod End P/N:MS76700
Sharpen loose, wandering steering with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MEV288), a front inner tie rod end that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1990-1993 Ford Festiva. A tie rod end links the steering system to the steering knuckle, transmitting steering input so the front wheels turn together — as the joint wears, play develops and steering gets sloppy.
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades aimed at high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
