QuickSteer Steering Tie Rod End P/N:ES2019RLT

Tracking down a worn Impala tie rod? The QuickSteer Steering Tie Rod End (ES2019RLT) is a front outer unit that links the steering linkage to the knuckle and transfers steering input to the wheel. It fits a wide range of GM rear-drive cars and vans, including the 1985-2005 Chevrolet Astro and GMC Safari, the 1977-1985 and 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala, the 1977-1996 Chevrolet Caprice, and the 1987-1992 Cadillac Brougham — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 26 applications.

• Forged alloy steel: built for durability under steering loads.
• Greaseable socket: lets new lubricant flush out contaminants to reduce corrosion and wear.
• Premium boot: helps keep contaminants out of the socket.
• Belleville preload washer: helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.

A patented pressed-in cover plate seals out debris and minimizes looseness to reduce bearing wear, while the Problem Solver gusher bearing uses a metal-to-metal design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction. Ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements, and precision tolerances are designed for straightforward installation and alignment. If a worn tie rod end is the cause of loose steering, play in the linkage, or uneven tire wear, replacing it helps restore proper handling. Sold individually; tie rod ends are commonly replaced as a pair, so consider the opposite side for balanced steering.
