MOOG 13-18 Nissan Altima Front Left Outer / Left Outer Tie Rod

MOOG is known for making well-built suspension parts that solve common problems. This front left outer tie rod end, part number ES801197, is designed to get your 2016-2023 Nissan Maxima steering feeling tight and responsive again. When your tie rods wear out, you might notice looseness in the steering wheel or uneven tire wear, and replacing them is key to getting that factory-fresh feel back.

This MOOG 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, leading to a longer life for the part. It also has a patented pressed-in cover plate that keeps dirt and debris out, further minimizing looseness and 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 keep it lubricated for reduced corrosion and wear.

Installation is made easier thanks to precision tolerances that help ensure a perfect fit and make steering alignment straightforward. A Belleville preload washer is included to help keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time. If you're looking to restore confident steering and handling to your Maxima, this MOOG tie rod end is a solid option.
