MOOG 01-03 Ford Explorer Sport Front Inner / Inner Tie Rod End

When you're working on the steering on your 2005-2011 Ford Ranger, the inner tie rod end is a critical component. This part connects the steering rack to the steering knuckle, and when it wears out, you'll notice looseness in the steering wheel and uneven tire wear. This is the front inner tie rod end from Moog, designed to get your steering feeling tight and responsive again.

Moog builds these tie rod ends with a gusher bearing, which is a metal-to-metal design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and makes the part last longer. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment specs, which helps prevent premature failure. Plus, they include a Belleville preload washer that helps absorb shock loads, preventing spring bind and shattering. For easier installation, it comes with a pre-applied thread locking compound and wrench flats on the housing and stud for adjustment.
