How do I know if I need to replace my tie rod ends?

Signs of worn tie rod ends include looseness in the steering wheel, clunking noises when turning, or uneven tire wear. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's a good idea to have them inspected.

Does this tie rod end come with a grease fitting?

Yes, this MOOG tie rod end features a greaseable socket. This allows you to add fresh lubricant to flush out contaminants and help prevent corrosion and wear.

What is the purpose of the gusher bearing?

The gusher bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This continuous lubrication reduces friction and helps the tie rod end last longer.

Product Details

If you're working on the steering system for a Subaru like a Forester, Crosstrek, or Outback, this MOOG ES3712 outer tie rod end is a solid part to consider. It's designed to replace your worn-out original, helping to bring back that crisp, responsive steering feel you expect. A tie rod end connects your steering rack to the steering knuckle, and when it wears out, you'll notice looseness in the wheel and uneven tire wear.

MOOG builds these with a gusher bearing, which is a metal-to-metal design that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and keeps things moving smoothly for a longer lifespan. They also use a patented cover plate that seals out dirt and debris, further reducing wear. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, making it strong and resistant to premature failure. Plus, the socket is greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to fight corrosion and wear.

This tie rod end is engineered for a precise fit, making installation and steering alignment straightforward. It also includes a Belleville preload washer that helps keep the bearing package tight as the part naturally wears over time. It's a well-built component designed to get your steering back to feeling like new.
