Tie rods connect your steering rack to the steering knuckles on your wheels. Basically, they’re the links in the chain that actually turn your wheels when you turn the steering wheel. They have ball joints on each end that allow for movement, letting you steer smoothly and accurately. Think of them as the arms and legs of your steering system. When you turn the steering wheel, the rack and pinion move, and the tie rods take that motion and translate it into turning the front wheels. They work with all the other steering and suspension parts to keep you going in the direction you want. They’re a pretty fundamental part of keeping you safely on the road. They’re really important for a couple of reasons. First, worn tie rod ends can cause loose steering. You’ll notice if you’re getting a lot of play in the steering wheel, or if the car feels like it's wandering on the highway. Second, if a tie rod end completely fails, you can lose steering control. It’s a pretty serious issue, so it's something you definitely want to stay on top of. They take a beating from road conditions, potholes, and just general wear and tear. If you're doing any front – end work, it’s a good idea to inspect them. You can find replacements pretty easily – places like Fixparts Online carry a good selection.
