Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End

The metal-to-metal design of the Gusher Bearing in this Moog tie rod end is a notable feature. It allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, which helps reduce friction and extend the life of the part. This is especially important for restoring the steering feel in your 1970-1975 Pontiac Firebird, making it feel more responsive and predictable.

Moog has incorporated several design choices to ensure this tie rod end performs well and lasts. The ball stud is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment requirements, which helps prevent premature failure and improves fatigue strength. A patented pressed-in cover plate works to seal out debris, reducing bearing wear and keeping things tight. Plus, the greaseable socket design allows you to flush out contaminants with fresh lubricant, further reducing corrosion and wear.

When it comes time for installation, you'll find that these Moog tie rod ends are made with precision tolerances. This means they fit right and make steering alignment straightforward, giving you that perfect fit right out of the box. A Belleville preload washer is also included to help keep the bearing package snug as the bearings naturally wear over time.
