The outer tie rod end connects the tie rod to the steering knuckle and passes your steering input to the wheel. Signs it may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, extra play at the steering wheel, clunking when turning, and uneven tire wear. Other steering and suspension parts can cause these symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing any part. A wheel alignment is typically recommended after installation.
