What is the MOOG CHASSIS tie rod end ES368RL?
It's a front outer steering tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to the wheel and helps set toe alignment on the listed American Motors applications.
Is this tie rod end greaseable?
Yes. It has a greaseable socket that lets you flush in fresh lubricant to push out contaminants, helping reduce corrosion and wear over time.

It fits AMC models including the 1968-1970 and 1978-1980 AMX, 1978-1983 Concord, 1970-1974 Ambassador and more. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
What are the signs my tie rod end may need replacing?
Play or looseness in the steering, uneven or rapid tire wear, and clunking or vibration when turning can be signs. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
Should I get an alignment after installing it?
Yes. Replacing an outer tie rod end changes toe settings, so have the vehicle aligned afterward to protect tires and restore proper steering geometry.
