It fits the 2006-2010 Dodge Ram 1500 and the 2011-2012 Ram 1500 in the front outer position. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
What does an outer tie rod end do?
It connects the inner tie rod to the steering knuckle. It transfers steering motion to the wheel so the wheels turn as the steering wheel is moved.
What are signs a tie rod end may need replacing?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, a clunk or knock when turning, and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the steering system to confirm the cause before replacing parts.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
Yes. A wheel alignment is typically recommended after replacing a tie rod end, because the tie rod assembly sets the wheel's toe position.
Does it meet OE specifications?
SKP states its tie rod ends are made from durable materials and built to match or surpass OE specifications. They are engineered to match the original equipment for a direct fit.
