Built for hard-working SUVs and trucks, the Mevotech TTX Tie Rod End, part number TXES3675, is a replacement to turn to when the steering linkage needs service. Cataloged for the front left outer position, it is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2002-2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer, 2002-2009 GMC Envoy and 2003-2006 Chevrolet SSR.
A steering tie rod end links the steering linkage to the steering knuckle and carries your steering input out to the wheel. Mevotech engineers its TTX line for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. Its Labor Saver designs, tools and hardware are intended to make installation faster and easier.
- Maximum toughness: patented sintered bearings are designed for longer-lasting performance, paired with an application-specific ball stud system that uses a larger sphere.
- Locks out contaminants: a patented sealing ring locks the boot onto the ball joint housing for a tight seal.
- Quick installation: the part-specific slotted castle nut and easy-snap cotter pin are provided, and pre-applied Nylok thread adhesive helps keep fasteners secure and vibration resistant.
- Simple to service: a 180-degree SAE grease fitting is included.
Signs a tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. Other steering components can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. A wheel alignment is generally recommended after installation.
