MOOG 15-22 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 WT LT Base Front Outer / Outer Tie Rod

The MOOG ES801261 outer tie rod end features a gusher bearing, a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and extend the life of the component, which is crucial for maintaining responsive steering. If your Colorado or Canyon is feeling loose or imprecise in its steering, replacing the tie rod ends is a common fix.

This tie rod end is built with heat-treated ball studs that meet or exceed original equipment requirements, helping to prevent premature failure and improve fatigue strength. The patented pressed-in cover plate works to seal out debris, minimizing looseness and bearing wear for a longer service life. A Belleville preload washer is also included to help keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time. The socket is greaseable, allowing you to flush out contaminants with fresh lubricant, further reducing corrosion and wear.

MOOG designs these tie rod ends with precision tolerances, ensuring an easy installation and a proper steering alignment right out of the box. This means you can get your vehicle back on the road with confidence in its steering performance.
