Tighten up worn, sloppy steering with the MOOG Chassis Steering Tie Rod End ES3011RL, a front outer tie rod end that links the steering system to the front wheel and helps set toe alignment. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1991-1996 Dodge Dakota and the 1992-2002 Dodge Viper — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-specific coverage. If a loose or worn original tie rod end is behind your play in the wheel, uneven tire wear, or wandering, this replaces it.
- Sealed cover plate: A patented pressed-in cover plate seals out debris and minimizes looseness, helping reduce bearing wear for longer life.
- Greaseable socket: Lets you flush in fresh lubricant to push out contaminants and reduce corrosion and wear.
- Belleville preload washer: Helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear.
- Gusher Bearing: Problem Solver metal-to-metal design provides strength and channels grease through the bearing surface for reduced friction.
Ball studs are heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to improve fatigue strength, and precision tolerances make for a straightforward install and alignment. Replacing tie rod ends in matched pairs is recommended where the service procedure calls for it, and have the vehicle aligned afterward.
