What vehicles does the EV406 tie rod end fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2004 Dodge Dakota and 2000-2003 Dodge Durango. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact engine-level fit for your vehicle.
Is this a front inner or outer tie rod end?
The EV406 is cataloged as a front inner steering tie rod end, connecting the steering gear to the outer linkage.
What is the Gusher Bearing?
It's MOOG's Problem Solver metal-to-metal bearing design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface, reducing friction for long service life.
What are the signs an inner tie rod end may need replacing?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, a clunk or play in the linkage, and uneven tire wear. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
Does it come ready to install?
Yes. Wrench flats on the housing and stud ease installation and alignment adjustment, and pre-applied thread locking compound helps prevent self-loosening. An alignment is recommended after service.
