Help tighten up loose, wandering steering with the MOOG CHASSIS tie rod end ES176R, a front outer steering tie rod end that links the steering system to the wheel and helps set your toe alignment. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1974 Dodge W200 Pickup, 1962-1966 Chevrolet C60 and 1963-1965 Chevrolet C80; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
MOOG backs this outer tie rod end with tested materials and problem-solving design:
- Patented pressed-in cover plate: seals out debris and minimizes looseness to reduce bearing wear and promote longer life.
- Greaseable socket: lets fresh lubricant flush contaminants to cut corrosion and wear.
- Belleville preload washer: helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.
- Problem Solver Gusher Bearing: metal-to-metal design adds strength and channels grease through the bearing surface for reduced friction.
Ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to improve fatigue strength, and precision tolerances make for an easy install and steering alignment right out of the box. If a worn tie rod end is behind your play or uneven tire wear, this replaces it.
