MOOG Chassis Products Steering Tie Rod End P/N:ES3447T

Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the MOOG Chassis Steering Tie Rod End ES3447T, the front right outer tie rod end that links the steering system to the wheel and helps set toe alignment. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-1999 Dodge Dakota and the 1998-1999 Dodge Durango — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications.

• Greaseable socket: lets fresh lubricant flush contaminants out, helping reduce corrosion and wear.
• Pressed-in cover plate: a patented, pressed-in cover plate seals out debris and minimizes looseness to reduce bearing wear.
• Belleville preload washer: helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings wear, absorbing impact.
• Gusher bearing: the PROBLEM SOLVER metal-to-metal design lets grease flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction.
• Heat-treated ball stud: heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to help resist premature failure and improve fatigue strength.

Precision tolerances are designed for straightforward installation and steering alignment. Signs the original outer tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and clunking or play felt through the wheel. Because tie rod ends wear as a pair, inspect the opposite side and have an alignment performed after installation.
