Mevotech Supreme Steering Tie Rod End Adjusting Sleeve P/N:MS40975
Keep your front-end alignment dialed in and your steering connected with the Mevotech Supreme Steering Tie Rod End Adjusting Sleeve (MES3626S). This front adjusting sleeve threads between the inner and outer tie rod ends, joining them into a single tie rod assembly and letting a technician turn the sleeve to set front toe during an alignment. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2008 DODGE RAM 2500, 2003-2008 DODGE RAM 3500, 2003-2008 RAM 2500, 2003-2008 RAM 3500, and 2006-2008 DODGE RAM 1500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
A seized or badly corroded sleeve that won't turn, or a sleeve damaged in an impact, are signs the original may need replacing. If a failed adjusting sleeve is preventing a proper toe adjustment, this replaces it — have the alignment checked after installation.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does a tie rod end adjusting sleeve do?
It threads between the inner and outer tie rod ends to join them, and turning the sleeve sets the front toe during a wheel alignment.
Does the MES3626S include hardware?
Yes. The Mevotech Supreme LaborSaver feature bundles the hardware needed for installation to save time at the job.
Which vehicles does this sleeve fit?
It fits the 2003-2008 Dodge Ram 2500/3500, 2003-2008 Ram 2500/3500, and 2006-2008 Dodge Ram 1500. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Is this a front part?
Yes, this adjusting sleeve is cataloged for the front position, connecting the front tie rod ends.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
