MOOG Chassis Products Steering Tie Rod End P/N:DS1017T
Firm up loose, wandering steering with the MOOG ES800055 Front Right Outer Steering Tie Rod End. Whether you're chasing down a worn 2011 Kia Sorento tie rod or servicing another listed vehicle, it installs as a direct-fit replacement designed for OE fit and function to help restore steering and handling on the front right outer position.
Fits (front right outer): 2007-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2007-2012 Hyundai Veracruz, and 2011-2013 Kia Sorento. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage.
Ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to inhibit premature failure. If a failed tie rod end is behind your loose steering, clunking on turns, or uneven tire wear, this replaces it; have an alignment performed after installation.
Does this fit a 2011 Kia Sorento tie rod?
Yes. The MOOG ES800055 fits the front right outer position on the 2011-2013 Kia Sorento, along with the 2007-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe and Veracruz.
What position on the vehicle does the ES800055 replace?
It is the front right (passenger-side) outer steering tie rod end for the listed applications.
Is this tie rod end greaseable?
Yes. It uses a greaseable socket, so you can push in fresh lubricant to flush out contaminants and reduce corrosion and wear over time.
What are signs my tie rod end may need replacing?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, clunking or knocking when turning, and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause, as these can have other sources.
Do I need an alignment after installing this part?
Yes. Because it affects toe settings, have a wheel alignment performed after installing the tie rod end for proper steering and even tire wear.
