Product Details

If you're working on the steering system for a wide range of Audi or Volkswagen models, this Moog front inner tie rod end is a solid option. It connects the steering rack to the steering knuckle, playing a crucial role in how your vehicle turns.

You'll also find wrench flats on both the housing and the stud, making it easier to get everything tightened down correctly and to make those fine adjustments needed for proper wheel alignment.
