Lemfoerder Tie Rod End - 3801801

It transmits steering movement from the rack to each front wheel and sets the wheel's toe angle. Inner and outer tie rods each have a joint that allows the suspension to move while you steer.

Loose or vague steering, a clunk when turning, the car pulling or wandering, uneven wear on the inner or outer edge of the tires, or a torn rubber boot on the joint.

Yes. Tie rods set toe, and even careful measuring cannot replace a proper alignment afterwards. Driving without one can wear tires quickly.

Replace whichever joint is worn. If both are original and high-mileage, replacing them together, and doing both sides, avoids paying for a second alignment soon after.
