Replace a worn front steering joint with the MOOG ES406L inner tie rod end, a QuickSteer™ chassis part designed and tested to help restore steering and handling to their original performance. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1971-1972 Chevrolet Chevelle, 1971-1972 Chevrolet El Camino and 1971-1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Cataloged for the front inner position, this steering tie rod end is a pivoting joint in the steering linkage that carries steering input toward the front wheels. It is designed for OE fit and function.
Precision tolerances are intended to make installation and steering alignment easy, and MOOG engineers test the part throughout design and development. Excess steering play, wandering, a clunk when turning or uneven tire wear are signs this part may need replacing. Other steering and suspension parts can cause the same symptoms, so inspect the linkage before ordering.
What does the MOOG ES406L inner tie rod end do?
It is the front inner pivot joint in the steering linkage. It carries steering input toward the front wheels and lets the linkage move as the suspension travels.
Will this Monte Carlo tie rod end fit my 1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo?
It is listed for the 1971-1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, the 1971-1972 Chevrolet Chevelle and the 1971-1972 Chevrolet El Camino. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.
Can the ES406L be greased?
Yes. It has a greaseable socket, so fresh lubricant can be added to flush out contaminants and help reduce corrosion and wear.
What signs suggest an inner tie rod end may need replacing?
Excess steering play, wandering, a clunk when turning or uneven tire wear can be signs of a worn tie rod end. Other steering parts can cause the same symptoms, so inspect before replacing.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
Yes. Replacing a tie rod end affects the front toe setting, so a wheel alignment is recommended after installation.
