MOOG 12-17 Kia Rio Front Left Outer / Left Outer Tie Rod

If you're working on the steering on your 2012-2017 Hyundai Accent, this Moog front left outer tie rod end is a solid choice. It's designed to replace the worn-out original part, helping to restore that precise, responsive steering feel you want. A worn tie rod end can lead to sloppy handling, uneven tire wear, and can even affect your alignment, so replacing it is key to keeping your car driving right.

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 wear, contributing to a longer service life. They also include a Belleville preload washer that keeps the bearing package tight as the part wears, which helps absorb impacts and maintain a snug fit. The socket is greaseable, meaning you can flush out contaminants and corrosion with fresh lubricant during routine maintenance.

This tie rod end is made with heat-treated ball studs that meet or exceed original equipment requirements, helping to prevent premature failure. Moog also uses a patented pressed-in cover plate that seals out debris, further minimizing looseness and bearing wear. You can expect precise tolerances for an easy installation and a proper steering alignment right out of the box.
