Help restore tight, responsive steering with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES413R), a front left inner tie rod end built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 1971-1979 Ford F-100, 1975-1979 Ford F-150 and 1971-1979 Ford F-250.
The tie rod end links the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transmitting your steering input to the front wheel. When the joint wears, you may notice steering play, wandering, a knocking feel through the wheel, or uneven tire wear — signs this part may need replacing. Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades for added durability.
