Steer straight and keep your front-end response tight with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MS40707). This front inner tie rod end links the steering gear to the outer tie rod end, transferring steering input to the front wheel while helping maintain toe alignment. It's engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2007 Mercury Montego (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment details).
Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades aimed at added durability, built for high-usage passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
- Sintered metal technology: used to increase durability and extend service life.
- Serviceable design: includes an SAE grease fitting so the joint can be re-lubricated.
- Labor Saver hardware: additional installation hardware is included in the box to simplify the job.
- Tested strength: extensive in-house and third-party durability testing.
Worn tie rod ends often show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or a clunk when turning. If a failed inner tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Replace and align once installed.
