Product Details

MOOG is well-known for creating parts that solve common automotive issues, and their tie rod ends are no exception. This front left outer tie rod end, part number ES80666, is built to restore precise steering feel and control for a wide range of Volkswagen and Audi vehicles, including models like the Volkswagen Jetta, Audi Q3, and Volkswagen Golf.

What sets this tie rod end apart is its Gusher Bearing design. This metal-to-metal setup allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, which helps reduce friction and extend its life. It also features a patented pressed-in cover plate that seals out dirt and debris, minimizing looseness and wear. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, ensuring it can handle the stresses of the road and resist premature failure. Plus, a Belleville preload washer helps keep the bearing package tight as the part naturally wears over time, maintaining consistent steering response.

Installation is made easier thanks to precision tolerances that allow for a perfect fit and straightforward steering alignment. This tie rod end is also greaseable, meaning you can flush out contaminants and add fresh lubricant to further combat corrosion and wear, contributing to its overall durability and long service life.
