Suspensia X36TE0977 Outer Tie Rod End Steering Replacement Part

The Suspensia X36TE0977 is a precision-engineered outer tie rod end designed as a direct OE-fit replacement for your vehicle's steering system. Outer tie rod ends (also called tie rod ends or steering tie rod ends) are a critical component of the steering linkage, connecting the inner tie rod or steering rack to the steering knuckle at the wheel to transmit steering input and allow precise wheel movement.

Key Features:

• Exact OE Fit – Engineered to match original equipment specifications for a direct, no-modification installation
• CNC-Machined Ball Stud – High-precision micro alloy steel ball stud with minimal surface roughness for smooth articulation, improved handling, and long-term comfort
• Elastomer Dust Boot – Flexible, crack-resistant elastomer-based dust cover seals out moisture and contamination for extended service life
• Corrosion-Resistant Finish – Protective coating helps the part withstand harsh weather and road conditions
• Factory Pre-Greased – Assembled with grease at the factory; sealed design requires no additional lubrication during installation in most applications
• IATF 16949 Certified Manufacturing – Built using advanced robotic welding and assembly in certified facilities to meet or exceed OE performance standards

About Suspensia: Suspensia is a brand of ISC Industries, a global OE supplier with manufacturing facilities certified to IATF 16949, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001 standards. ISC Industries supplies OE components to automakers including Ford, Fiat/Chrysler, Volkswagen Group, and Renault/Nissan. Every Suspensia outer tie rod end undergoes thorough development and verification for exact-fit performance — not a generic approximation.

Important Installation Note: A wheel alignment must be performed after replacing any tie rod end, as this component connects to the adjusting sleeve that sets the vehicle's toe angle. Skipping alignment will result in accelerated tire wear and imprecise steering.
