Tie rods - easy to install, improved performance
Verified Buyer -
Mechanic put two outside tie rods on my vehicle, 2011 Hyundai Sonata GLS. Took him 1-1/2 hours to take of the original rods and replace them. He counted the turns and used the same amount to install them. Have not required an alignment. Has improved performance on curves.
Great fit and quality parts

This fit perfectly with my 2011 Kia Optima EX. The castle nut is much better than the OEM version. Does come with a cotter pin. Also has a grease fitting. Has some grease from the factory, but definitely needs to be greased a bit extra before installation. Easily screws into the inner tie rod, and then easily sits in the steering knuckle. This is also thicker than the OEM outer tie rod, so prepare to have open wrenches in the 21-25mm range. The castle nut is also larger than the OEM nut, so make sure to have a 17mm rachet end as well.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
