A Tie Rod End is a metal rod that connects the tires/ wheels to both the suspension and steering components. The Tie Rod end is attached to a single end of the Tie Rod while on the other end there is the ball joint attached which is further connected to the other wheel’s tie rod. Tie rod ends are the crucial meeting point between a vehicle’s steering rack and steering knuckle. The rod end not only transmits the force from the steering rack to the wheels, but it also provides a pivot point for the steering to maintain its geometry. The rod end typically features a round end and has a threaded bolt perpendicular to it that is inserted into the knuckle. The rounded end also houses bearings that allow the bolt to pivot freely; this end is covered by a protective boot to keep dirt out. Due to the extreme forces put on rod ends, they can wear out and cause your steering to get sloppy. There are a couple telltale signs you should be conscious of that are good indicators that tie rod ends need to be replaced. The first and most obvious is if you can turn the wheel a small amount without any response from the steering system. Another tell is if your vehicle emits a squeaking sound when you turn the wheel. Not to be confused with the sustained squealing noise the steering rack can make when it’s low on fluid, a worn rod end will make a brief, high-pitch squeak.
