Help take the slop out of worn front steering with the Mevotech Supreme steering tie rod end (MES441RL), a front outer tie rod end that ties the steering linkage to the front wheel and lets the wheel pivot as you turn. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1975-1981 Chevrolet Camaro, 1975-1979 Chevrolet Nova and 1976-1981 Pontiac Firebird — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full engine-level fitment. If a worn tie rod end is behind your loose, wandering steering, this is the part that replaces it.
- Quick, easy installation: ships with the part-specific castle nut and cotter pin, so the ball stud secures to the vehicle without sourcing extra hardware.
- Resists corrosion: a protective surface treatment helps guard against rust build-up.
- Built for hard use: Mevotech Supreme parts are engineered in-house with application-specific upgrades and are designed for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks.
- Validated: premium materials on all components, backed by in-house and third-party durability testing.
