What is Tie Rod End
The tie rod end is a vital component of the vehicle's steering system, connecting the steering linkage to the steering knuckle. It consists of a threaded shaft with a ball joint at single end, connecting to the steering linkage, and a tapered stud at the other end, attaching to the steering knuckle. Tie rod ends are typically made of sturdy materials like steel or aluminum alloy to withstand the forces experienced during driving
