Moog ES800223 Tie Rod End

sin problema, fue una venta

Best tie rods I've used for my truck, have went through many tie rod brands in the past and these ones hold up the best for my lifted truck

This Moog Tie Rod End is a durable and reliable part. I had to remove the steering knuckle to change the lower ball joint on my 2012 Tahoe, which of course means that I had to disconnect the old tie rod end. And naturally, the old tie rod end was sloppy and the stud spun at the ball joint, so I determined it should be replaced. I purchased this part as a replacement. It arrived timely, and fit correctly. The new part appears tight and clean, and it was easy to install. I appreciate that a grease fitting is included, so the part can be serviced to extend its lifespan. Tie rods tend to scare people, but this is not a difficult part to change, at all. Before removing the old tie rod end, simply take a measurement from a fixed point on the tie rod itself, and measure to the center of the old ball joint on the old tie rod end. When you thread on your new part, just match the measurement from the same fixed point on the tie rod, to the center of the new ball joint. This method should not take the place of a proper alignment, but if you get the new part to measure to a value within about 1/8th of an inch of the old tie rod end, it will keep you from eating up your tires until you can get it properly aligned. Then just pop the stud end into the steering knuckle and secure the castle nut properly. A comparable part at Advance Auto costs significantly more, priced at $57.99, so this part is well worthwhile, and a shop would probably charge you another $100 to change it. If you like to save money, and you can manage basic hand tools (tape measure, ratchet, hammer, and two open end wrenches), this part might be for you. Well worth while. Moog is a great brand name with a solid reputation, and appearance and presentation out of the box was more than satisfactory. I would recommend this part.

was exact fit no problems

Needed to replace one on my 2010 Silverado to get my front end alignment. It was going to be several hundred dollars, but a friend said we could change it. The price was great, was a perfect fit, and I have had it on for several thousand miles. It came greased, and is working fine. This was a very economical purchase, if you have the basic skills necessary to do the work, yourself.
