What is the benefit of a greaseable tie rod end?

A greaseable socket allows you to periodically add fresh lubricant. This helps to flush out dirt and moisture that can cause corrosion and premature wear, extending the life of the tie rod end.

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

Signs of worn outer tie rod ends include play or looseness in the steering wheel, a clunking noise when turning, or uneven tire wear on the edges of the tire tread.

Does this tie rod end come with a new castle nut and cotter pin?

This Moog tie rod end (ES801167) includes the tie rod end itself. It is recommended to replace the castle nut and cotter pin during installation, as these are often single-use hardware.

Product Details

When you're tackling steering repairs on your 2011-2017 BMW X3 or 2015-2018 BMW X4, replacing the outer tie rod ends is a common and important step. These components connect your steering rack to the steering knuckle, directly influencing your vehicle's alignment and how precisely it responds to your input. A worn tie rod end can lead to sloppy steering, uneven tire wear, and make it difficult to keep your car pointed straight.

This Moog outer tie rod end is built with precision tolerances, meaning it's made to fit right the first time, making installation and subsequent steering alignment a smoother process. One notable feature is its greaseable socket. This allows you to add fresh grease periodically, which helps to push out contaminants and reduce corrosion, extending the life of the joint. Moog engineers put these parts through rigorous testing to ensure they perform reliably when you need them.

Having a well-functioning steering system is crucial for safe driving. Replacing worn tie rod ends with a well-built part like this Moog unit can restore that confident feel to your steering wheel.
