Detailed Description

Suspensia X15TA7746 is a rear steering tie rod end assembly engineered for select 2002 Ford Explorer and 2002 Mercury Mountaineer applications. It uses a steel housing and steel bearing material for a durable steering linkage replacement, while the pre-greased design and dust boot help protect the joint from contamination during service. This part cross-references Dorman - Premium LL85705PR for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Loose or inaccurate rear steering response
  • Clunking or play in the steering linkage
  • Worn dust boot protection at the joint
  • Steering instability caused by a worn tie rod end assembly
  • Service issues on rear compensator link applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear fitment before installation, especially on 2002 Ford Explorer models built before 03/04/2002 with compensator link application details. The pinch-style stud and bolt-on attachment should be matched to the original steering linkage configuration. Confirm alignment after replacement to restore proper steering geometry.
