TrueDrive RM28210011 Front Inner Tie Rod End - OEM Replacement 32116761557

The TrueDrive RM28210011 is a front inner tie rod end engineered as a direct OEM replacement for Mini Cooper models (built from April 2003). This part replaces BMW/Mini OEM part number 32116761557 and is designed to restore precise steering response and proper front-end alignment geometry.

The inner tie rod end is a critical steering linkage component that connects the steering rack to the outer tie rod end. It transfers steering inputs from the rack to the front wheels, working in conjunction with the outer tie rod end and adjusting sleeve to maintain correct toe angle. A worn inner tie rod end can cause loose or wandering steering, vibration through the steering wheel, and abnormal tire wear.

Key Features:

• Direct OEM-replacement design for precise fit — no modifications required
• Restores proper steering response and front-end alignment geometry
• Equal application on both driver and passenger sides (RH = LH fitment)
• Replaces BMW/Mini OEM part number 32116761557
• Compatible with Mini Cooper R50, R52, and R53 chassis (production from 04/2003)
• Cross-references: MOOG ES800094, Raybestos 4012082, McQuay-Norris ES4505

After installation, a professional front-end wheel alignment is recommended to ensure correct toe settings and maximize tire life. The inner tie rod end torque specification per factory service manual is 80 ± 8 Nm (59 ± 6 ft-lbs).
