Mevotech Supreme Steering Center Link P/N:MS40900
Keep front-end steering tight and precise with the Mevotech Supreme Steering Center Link, MDS1425. This front steering-linkage component ties the pitman arm and idler arm together and links the inner tie rods, transferring motion from the steering box across the linkage to point the front wheels. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1997-2003 Ford F-150, 1997-1999 Ford F-250 and 1997-2002 Ford Expedition — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Signs the original center link may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, excess play in the wheel, clunking through the linkage, and uneven front tire wear. If a worn center link is the cause, this Mevotech Supreme unit replaces it. Diagnose the cause before ordering, since these symptoms can also come from tie-rod ends, the idler arm, or other steering and suspension parts.
