Inner tie rod end/Pitman arm 4WD HD RAM2500/3500 98/99

Connecting the driver to the vehicle

Tie rods are a crucial part of your steering system. When you turn your steering wheel, the movement goes through the steering rack, through the tie rods, and finally through your steering arm or spindle. Without tie rods, you would not be able to turn your car. This part is also incredibly important for the alignment of your vehicle. If you are replacing your tie rods, be sure to perform an alignment immediately afterwards.

Designed for strength, durability and long life

Moog tie rods have a number of differences from the OE. One of the more obvious differences is the overall design itself. While many OE tie rods are two-piece, Moog forged units tie rods are one-piece. This design from é é n piece reduces the likelihood of premature wear, increasing the durability of the part as a whole. To protect your tie rod, Moog uses a neoprene-sealed rubber fabric cover. This fabric boot is resistant to both extreme temperatures and abrasion. The design of this rubber boot includes a small valve to flush out old grease and contaminants. In addition to all these other features, Moog manufactures their tie rod end with full ball hardened metal studs. These hardened studs can handle much more than the OE, making the tie rod much more reliable.

• Recovers as new steering gear -- patented pressed-in cover plate seals dirt and minimizes looseness, reduces bearing wear and promotes longer life
• Lubricated design -- reduces corrosion and wear by allowing new lubricant to wash away contaminants
• Absorbs shock-Belleville preload ring helps keep the bearing pack tight as bearings wear
• Problem Solver&Reg; Gusher Bearing -- metal-to-metal design provides strength and allows grease to flow through the bearing surface for less friction and long life
• Strong and durable -- ball Bolts are heat treated to meet or exceed OE requirements to prevent premature failure and improve fatigue strength
• Rigorous testing -- extensive testing during design and development processes by MOOG engineers for quality you can count on
