Mevotech Supreme Steering Tie Rod End P/N:MES3494

Keep your steering precise and your tires tracking straight with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES3494). This front inner tie rod end installs as a direct-fit replacement across a wide range of full-size Ford, Lincoln and Mercury sedans, including the 1992-2002 Ford Crown Victoria, 1979-1982 Ford LTD, 1981-2002 Lincoln Town Car and 1979-2002 Mercury Grand Marquis — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered years and models.

It links the steering to the front wheel through the inner pivot, transmitting steering input while allowing suspension movement. A worn joint develops play here, a frequent Crown Victoria tie rod complaint on high-mileage cars.

• Sintered metal strength: sintered metal technology increases durability and extends service life.
• Simple to service: an SAE grease fitting is included for periodic chassis lubrication.
• Labor Savers added: additional installation hardware is included in the box.
• Built and tested: designed for high-usage passenger, fleet and working vehicles, with in-house and third-party durability testing.

If a worn front inner tie rod end is the cause of loose steering, wandering, or uneven tire wear, replacing it with the MES3494 removes the play in that joint. Have the linkage inspected to confirm the failed joint before ordering.
