MOOG ES3538 Steering Tie Rod End for Dodge Ram 1500

Both Tie Rod ends arrived new and complete without missing any hardware as some of the others have stated. They are both new and American-made! The quality is self-evident and what you expect from made-in-the-USA products. GOD BLess America!

Worked great on 03 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT, RWD (2WD). It has a grease fitting which is awesome.You will need an alignment after install to ensure the toe in/out is correct, but the following tips will help get it "real close":1. Measure the length of old inner and outer rod, before removing old tie rod end, so you can twist the new end on to the same exact length. Or...2. Loosen jam nut, then gently snug it back in position, so you can twist new tie rod end into same exact position against the old jam nut (I didn't use the new jam nuts included in this package, as they were thinner in diameter). Or...3. Count turns while twisting off the old one, and twist on the new one with the same number.

Installed on my 05 ram 1500. The factory ones had 176000 miles on them. Simple to install with basic tools.

Found to have finally got rid of the awful steering wheel 'bind' issue I had been having - even after replacing the lil very expensive steering column half-shaft (which had first been presumed to be the colprit) on an '04 Ram 4x4. Since that lil expensive part didnt cause the death syndrome in the steering, a right/front outer tie rod had then been found to have a slight side-to-side movement while rackin the steering wheel back n forth. The far cheaper tie rod fixed the deadly issue once and for all. Going with Moog products was only a given since I've done so for many years in the past which have always pulled thru in reliability and longetivity. Advice : when the steering starts binding or feels loose in any way - ck the 4 rods 'twice over' prior to forkin out way more bidenbux for that lil column shaft containing a u-joint.

I have purchased and installed other brands of tie rod ends on my Dodge Ram 1500. I decided to try these since others seem to wear so fast. I immediately noticed the difference in quality. I noticed the better ride quality right away. We'll see how long they last.

Purchased two of these for my Ram. OE fit and half the price of my local parts stores.

Easy to install, good quality and durable.

erfect gotment

Parts arrived on time and were exactly as described and perfect fit.

mechanic had no issues installing,

A good quality part upgrade to the worn out knocking tie rod ends.The fit fine. Two observations that would have made it a 5.- The body is ever so slightly longer than the stock joint. Just enough to notice a change in handling that will require a wheel alignment.- It would be nice if the stud bolt was same length and same nut as the original.
