What is the benefit of the Gusher Bearing design?

The Gusher Bearing is a metal-to-metal design that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface. This helps reduce friction and extend the life of the tie rod end.

Does this tie rod end come with a grease fitting?

Yes, the socket is greaseable. This feature allows you to flush out contaminants with new lubricant, which helps reduce corrosion and wear.

What does the Belleville preload washer do?

The Belleville preload washer helps maintain a tight bearing package as the tie rod end naturally wears over time. This helps keep your steering feel consistent.

Product Details

When you're tackling steering repairs on your 1978-1989 Porsche 911 Carrera, getting the right parts is key to restoring that crisp, responsive feel. This MOOG ES2096R outer tie rod end is built to bring your steering back to life, ensuring you have solid control on the road. It's designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, including many Mercedes-Benz models from the 1950s through the 1990s, as well as various BMW 2002 and 1600 series cars.

What sets this tie rod end apart is MOOG's Gusher Bearing design. It's a metal-to-metal setup that allows grease to flow through the bearing surface, which helps reduce friction and extend its life. Plus, the patented pressed-in cover plate works to keep dirt and debris out, minimizing wear and play in the bearing. The ball stud itself is heat-treated to meet or exceed original equipment strength, giving you confidence in its durability. For installation, you'll find precision tolerances that make alignment easier, and the socket is greaseable, so you can flush out contaminants and keep things lubricated for longer service life.

This tie rod end also includes a Belleville preload washer. This small but important part helps keep the bearing package tight as the bearings naturally wear over time, maintaining consistent steering feel. It's a well-built component designed for reliable performance and a straightforward installation.
