Description
The outer tie rod ends are the link between the inner tie rod and the steering knuckle on your Mercedes-Benz. They utilize a ball socket to articulate to any needed position during driving, but like any ball socked component in you steering or suspension system, the outer tie rod ends can wear out, and need replaced.
Symptoms that your outer tie rod ends need replaced can include clunking noises coming from the front end when you drive over bumps, or an overall loose or wandering feeling while driving.
If your outer tie rod ends are starting to exhibit signs of wear, they must be replaced to keep your vehicle traveling many miles safely down the road.
If you are replacing your outer tie rod ends, now would be the perfect time to inspect and replace any other steering and suspension components that are starting to show signs of wear. Euromotiv carries a full line of steering and suspension components for your Mercedes-Benz to help you keep it driving as well as it did when it was new.
