Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the QuickSteer DS1462 Steering Tie Rod End, a front left inner tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to help transfer input from the gear to the wheels. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 and the 2000-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
- Absorbs impact: a Belleville preload washer helps eliminate spring bind and shattering under shock load.
- Gusher bearing: a metal-to-metal design adds strength and lets grease flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction and long life.
- Sealed and serviceable: a premium boot and patented pressed-in cover plate keep out debris and minimize looseness, while the greaseable socket lets fresh lubricant flush contaminants.
- Built to last: forged alloy steel construction with heat-treated ball studs made to match or exceed OE requirements.
Designed and tested for OE fit and function to help restore steering and handling. Signs an inner tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and clunking or play in the steering.
