Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the MOOG Chassis Products Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End ES3197RL. This front outer tie rod end links the steering system to the wheel and transmits your steering input, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-1997 Ford Probe, 1993-2002 Mazda 626, 2000-2006 Mazda MPV, 1993-1997 Mazda MX-6, 1999-2003 Mazda Protege, and 2002-2003 Mazda Protege5 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.

  • Greaseable socket: allows new lubricant to flush contaminants, reducing corrosion and wear.
  • Problem Solver Gusher Bearing: metal-to-metal design provides strength and lets grease flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction and long life.
  • Belleville preload washer: helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.
  • Forged alloy steel construction with heat-treated ball studs built to match or exceed OE requirements to inhibit premature failure and improve fatigue strength.

A patented pressed-in cover plate and premium boot seal out debris to minimize looseness and keep contaminants away from the bearing. Designed for OE fit and function with precision tolerances for straightforward installation. If a worn tie rod end is behind your play in the steering or uneven tire wear, this replacement helps restore vehicle handling.
