TrueDrive REPD282121 Front Outer Tie Rod End Passenger Side OEM Replacement 52039185

The TrueDrive REPD282121 is a front, passenger-side (right-hand) outer tie rod end designed as a direct OEM replacement for 1998–1999 Dodge Ram 1500 and Ram 2500 pickup trucks. This tie rod end replaces OEM part number 52039185 and restores proper steering geometry and feel to worn or damaged front steering systems.

The outer tie rod end connects the adjusting sleeve to the steering knuckle, playing a critical role in translating steering input into precise wheel movement. A worn outer tie rod end can cause loose or vague steering, uneven tire wear, pulling to one side, and clunking noises — all of which this replacement is designed to correct.

• Front, passenger-side (right-hand / RH) outer tie rod end
• Pre-greased ball stud for immediate service readiness
• Grease fitting included for ongoing maintenance lubrication
• Steel ball stud construction for strength and durability
• Engineered to meet or exceed original equipment specifications

This replacement tie rod end is a straightforward bolt-on component. After installation, a front-end alignment is recommended to ensure proper toe settings and maximize tire life. Cross-reference part numbers include DS1457, ES3497, and 52039185.
