OE-Style Steering Replacement

This steering tie rod end is engineered as an OE-style replacement for the front left outer steering linkage on INFINITI QX50 and INFINITI QX55 applications. Part number 544-261 uses a steel housing, pre-greased internal components, and a protective dust boot to support consistent steering feel and long-term serviceability. The bent design and right-hand thread direction help match the original steering geometry on the listed vehicles. This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme MS30698 for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address

  • Loose or wandering steering response
  • Clunking or play from the outer steering linkage
  • Uneven front tire wear caused by worn steering components
  • Steering wheel correction issues after tie rod wear
  • Noise or contamination at the steering joint

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle application before installation and confirm the front left outer position on the steering system. Because this part uses a clockwise (right) thread direction, match the thread orientation during replacement and alignment setup. A professional wheel alignment is recommended after installation to restore proper steering geometry. Part number 544-261 includes a dust boot, cotter pin, locking nut, and mounting hardware as listed in the product data.

Quality Assurance

Dorman subjects this steering tie rod end to an industry-focused evaluation process to help confirm proper operation, fit, and durability for the listed INFINITI applications.
