MOOG 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT Front Right Outer / Right Outer Tie Rod End

When you're working on the steering on your 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer, the outer tie rod end is a key part that connects your steering rack to the steering knuckle. This Moog ES3579 outer tie rod end is built to help restore that precise, like-new steering feel. It 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 service life.

Moog also includes a patented pressed-in cover plate that works to seal out dirt and debris, further minimizing looseness and bearing wear. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, which helps prevent premature failure and improves fatigue strength. You can expect a precise fit right out of the box, making installation and steering alignment straightforward.

For added durability, a Belleville preload washer is incorporated to help keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time. This tie rod end is also greaseable, allowing you to flush out contaminants with fresh lubricant, which helps reduce corrosion and wear.
