Description: The joints on tie rods are subject to wear, which usually starts with a torn boot. Once the grease has been washed out of the axial joint or tie rod end, the ball joint will fail within a few thousand kilometers. Defective rubber sleeves or rod ends are complained about at the TÜV at the latest. Depending on the Porsche model, the tie rods can consist of two or three main components. These include the axial joint as an inner ball joint in front of the steering gear and the so-called tie rod end at the outer end of the tie rod. Sometimes the axial joint and tie rod end are connected via a separate intermediate tube. Because changing the tie rod always requires a new chassis measurement and adjustment of the toe-in, it is advisable to replace the tie rod completely, depending on the condition. In our shop you will find a variety of tie rod ends, axial joints and complete tie rods, including the right steering boots. If you have any questions, our service team will be happy to provide advice.
