Product Features and Specifications

Applications and Problem Resolution

This steering tie rod end is specifically compatible with Ford E-250 Econoline, E-250 Econoline Club Wagon, E-350 Econoline, and E-350 Econoline Club Wagon models. It addresses common steering and suspension issues such as:

• Excessive play or looseness in steering linkage
• Uneven tire wear caused by misaligned steering components
• Steering vibration or noise during operation
• Contamination damage due to worn or missing dust boots
• Difficulty maintaining proper wheel alignment

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Mevotech MDS1175 tie rod end, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Remove the old tie rod end carefully, noting the orientation and thread engagement. Use the included castle nuts and cotter pins to secure the new part, and verify that the dust boot is properly seated to prevent contamination. Since this part is non-adjustable, alignment should be checked and corrected after installation to maintain proper steering geometry. Regular greasing through the included grease fitting is recommended to prolong service life.
