What This Product Does

The inner tie rod transmits movement from the steering rack through the outer tie rod to the front wheel assembly. Its joint allows the steering linkage to articulate as the suspension moves, while the threaded connection provides the adjustment needed to set front wheel alignment.

• Connects the steering rack to the outer tie rod assembly
• Transfers steering input towards the front wheels
• Allows controlled movement within the steering linkage
• Provides adjustment for front wheel alignment
• Replaces a worn or damaged original inner tie rod

Why Replacement Matters

Wear in the inner tie rod joint can introduce unwanted movement between the steering rack and wheel assembly. Replacing a worn component helps remove steering play and permits the front suspension geometry to be adjusted correctly. Prekom specialises in the manufacture and renovation of steering and suspension components, with a particular focus on Porsche applications and original-style replacement parts.

Inspect the outer tie rods, steering rack gaiters and related joints during installation. A professional wheel-alignment check is required after replacing steering linkage components.

FAQs

• Is wheel alignment required after installation?
  Yes. The front wheel alignment should be checked and adjusted after an inner tie rod is replaced.
• How many are required per vehicle?
  Two are required for the car, and each inner tie rod is supplied individually.
• Should both sides be replaced?
  Both sides should be inspected for wear. Replacing them together may be appropriate where their condition and service history are similar.
• Is this a complete tie rod assembly?
  No. This product is the inner tie rod within the steering rack and tie rod assembly.
