  • Pre-greased for immediate use and extended service life

Durable Construction and Maintenance Features

The MES3172RLT steering tie rod end from Mevotech is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of Dodge Ram trucks. Its pre-greased ball joint reduces initial wear, while the included grease fitting allows for ongoing lubrication, extending the part's lifespan. The threaded stud ensures a secure connection to the steering knuckle, and the included castle nut and cotter pin provide added safety by preventing loosening during operation. This tie rod end is designed without adjustability to maintain factory alignment settings, simplifying installation and ensuring consistent steering response.

Compatible Dodge Ram Models and Applications

This steering tie rod end is compatible with Dodge Ram 1500, Ram 2500, and Ram 3500 trucks. It is ideal for replacing worn or damaged tie rod ends that cause steering play, uneven tire wear, or alignment issues.

  • Eliminates steering wheel vibration and looseness
  • Prevents uneven tire wear caused by misalignment
  • Restores precise steering control and handling
  • Addresses clunking noises from worn steering components

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Mevotech MES3172RLT tie rod end requires standard steering component tools. Since the part is non-adjustable, it is recommended to have a professional alignment performed after installation to ensure proper steering geometry. The included castle nut and cotter pin must be installed to secure the tie rod end and prevent loosening. Regular greasing through the provided grease fitting will help maintain optimal performance and extend service life.

The MES3172RLT steering tie rod end comes with a limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
