Product Description

RESTORES LIKE-NEW STEERING -- A patented pressed-in cover plate seals out debris and reduces looseness, reducing bearing wear and extending the life of the bearing.

GREASEABLE SOCKET -- Allows new lubricant to flush contaminants, reducing corrosion and wear.

ABSORBS IMPACT -- As bearings wear, the Belleville preload washer keeps the bearing package tight.

PROBLEM SOLVING GUSHER BEARING -- The metal-to-metal design provides strength while allowing grease to flow through the bearing surface for reduced friction and longer life.

STRONG AND DURABLE -- To prevent premature failure and improve fatigue strength, ball studs are heat treated to meet or exceed OE specifications.

EASY TO INSTALL -- Precision tolerances ensure a perfect fit right out of the box for easy installation and steering alignment.

COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE -- Foreign and domestic nameplates are both covered.

RIGOROUS TESTING -- MOOG engineers conduct extensive testing throughout the design and development process to ensure consistent quality.

Questions & Answers

Is the threaded stud 7/8" in diameter? Is there a 7/8" RHT tie rod end made by Moog if not?

Yes, a right-hand 7/8" tie rod end is available from Moog. The part's L will be changed to an R.

My jeep cherokee xj was manufactured in 2001. Is this tie rod end connected to the pitman arm or the steering knuckle of the driver?

This attaches to the pitman arm on our 2000 JEEP TJ and is a good substitute for the original. Fittment information can be found on the MOOG website.

I'm looking for es3096r, but I'm not sure where to look. ?

Thank you for contacting me with your query. The ES3096L is not available in a right-hand threaded version from Moog.

Is this a Moog product made in the United States?

On 03 TJ drop pitman arm, Moog comes to the rescue

5/5

Flexibility and beefiness are two words that come to mind when thinking of this dish. There have been no complaints about this tie. rod swap. All components were included in this high-quality product, including the castle nut and grease-resistant bearings. cotter pins and zerks All things considered, I was able to get in without difficulty.

Quality control and supply management are both lacking

3/5

Perhaps they'll last a long time, but first impressions aren't promising, as one item had tears in the boot and the other was for a Toyota rather than a Cherokee. If they last longer than a year, I'll update my review, but so far, I'm not expecting much. When two of my Cherokee's brakes failed, I saw rave reviews online and decided to replace all of them. I've used 1aAuto tie rods on other cars before and they've always lasted, so I figured I'd give them a shot with these. I don't have a photo of the torn one because I returned it right away, but here's a shot of what I got before returning the Toyota one.

steel in its purest form I'm not sure why replacement steering parts are starting to come in bare steel without paint, but it appears to be a cost-cutting trend

4/5

If you ask yourself, "would a car manufacturer put this part on a new car?" the answer is obviously no, which is why, despite being perfect in every other way, I can't give this 5 stars. I knew the odds were 50/50 when I ordered it because the item listing showed pictures of the part with and without paint, but Moog is supposedly a good brand, and I guess I'd rather paint a reliable part than install a painted turd that breaks on the trail.

The Moog is a fantastic instrument

5/5

This fit my 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ perfectly, and I had gotten another cheaper one for one of the other tie rods I needed, and it just had a plastic or rub er cone covering the ball joint instead of this Moog brand, which has a sealed expanding rubber grease cup that fills with grease and won't leak or let water or dirt in.

For jeeps that are getting old, this is a must

5/5

Jeep parts that have worn out can be replaced with this product. It really helped to tighten up the steering and get rid of the shimmy from big bumps. New ball joints, tie rod ends, drag link, and the sleeve between the pitman arm and the drag link were all installed at the same time. If your Jeep feels loose or shimmies when you're driving fast, this is a must-have.

Part is made of bare metal and comes with all necessary hardware

4/5

As other reviewers have stated, this is bare metal. On a 1999 Jeep Wrangler, I matched the stock part. The Zerk fittings are a little flimsy, but they sat well and worked well, and the rubber boot is thick, with all the necessary hardware included. We'll see how long it lasts now that it's been installed without problems.

There is a lack of quality control

3/5

I was about to start installing it when I realized that the grease zerk needed to be installed first. This is not going to happen! At the top of the rod end, there are only a few threads. I had to use a 1/4-inch needle to thread it. 28 taps at the bottom Now I have to be concerned about any metal chips that may have found their way inside.

I replaced a tie rod end that connects to the pitman arm on a Jeep TJ with this one because my old one had a torn boot and it was a no-brainer to replace it completely for the price

4/5

I was able to install it without difficulty, but I had some difficulty threading the zerk fitting into the rear cover. I'm not sure if threads were even present to begin with, but it finally screwed in with enough force and a few choice words, but the most difficult part of the job should not have been installing the zerk fitting. br>br>The part had no finish at all, just bare metal, as shown in the photo. I spray- To avoid rusting, it was painted after installation.
