Detailed Description

The Mevotech GES3426S steering tie rod end adjusting sleeve is engineered for Ford front-end steering systems that require accurate linkage length adjustment. Its steel body and premium-grade construction support consistent clamping and thread engagement during alignment work. This sleeve is commonly used on Ford F-250 Super Duty and Ford F-350 Super Duty models, including front steering applications and select drag link service configurations. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES3426S for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Correcting steering wheel off-center conditions after alignment work
• Replacing a worn or seized tie rod adjusting sleeve
• Restoring secure toe adjustment on Ford Super Duty steering linkage
• Addressing looseness in front steering linkage connections
• Servicing drag link or connecting tie rod adjustment points

Installation Notes

Verify thread direction, thread size, and sleeve length before installation. The GES3426S uses a counterclockwise thread and two female ends, so it must match the existing steering linkage configuration on the vehicle. After installation, perform a professional wheel alignment to set toe and steering wheel position correctly. Confirm fitment for the specific Ford F-250 Super Duty, Ford F-350 Super Duty, or Excursion application before service.
