Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End

Moog is known for making well-built suspension parts that often solve common vehicle issues. This front outer tie rod end, part number ES801253, is designed to restore like-new steering feel and responsiveness to your 2014-2019 Chevrolet Impala. When your tie rods wear out, you might notice looseness in the steering wheel, or your car might wander, making it harder to keep straight. Replacing them with a solid part like this Moog unit can make a big difference in how your car handles.

This tie rod end features a gusher bearing design, which is a metal-to-metal setup that lets grease flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and wear, contributing to a longer service life. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, which helps prevent premature failure and improves fatigue strength. Moog also includes a Belleville preload washer that helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time, maintaining proper tension and reducing looseness.

You can expect a precise fit right out of the box, making installation and steering alignment straightforward. The socket is greaseable, which is a big help in reducing corrosion and wear because you can flush out contaminants with fresh lubricant. This part is also designed to absorb impact effectively, keeping your steering system working smoothly.
