QuickSteer Steering Tie Rod End P/N:ES406L
Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the MOOG Chassis Steering Tie Rod End (ES3578), an outer tie rod end that links the steering system to the wheel and transmits your inputs to turn the front wheels. This chevy Trailblazer tie rod end is a direct-fit replacement for the front left outer position on the 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer, 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, 2002 GMC Envoy, 2002 GMC Envoy XL, and 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada [All engines].
The male ball stud carries a 14 mm thread diameter and a 1.5 mm thread pitch. A worn tie rod end can show up as clunking, uneven tire wear, or loose, wandering steering; if the outer tie rod end is the cause, replacing it can help restore steering and handling. Designed for OE fit and function, it installs with precision tolerances so the steering can be aligned. A wheel alignment is recommended after installation.

Do I need an alignment after installing this Trailblazer tie rod end?
