Collection: Tie rods

Steering tie rods – steering system parts

A steering tie rod transfers movement from the rack to the wheel knuckle through articulated connections. Its condition affects precise steering. This category includes tie rods for various cars.

How to recognise wear

Play, knocking, imprecise steering response or uneven tyre wear may indicate a problem. Inspect the tie-rod ends, steering rack and suspension as well.

How to choose a tie rod

Check the OE number, length, thread specification, fitting side and steering rack version. Parts within the same model are not always identical.

After replacement

Replacing a tie rod affects toe settings; wheel alignment measurement and adjustment are usually needed. Compare tie-rod ends too.
