Tie Rod End 8-97107349-0 8971073490 for ISUZU 100P NKR55 NPR NQR NHR — Verified OEM Fit Left-Hand Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End with Castle Nut & Cotter Pin
This tie rod end with OEM numbers 8-97107349-0 and 8971073490 is a verified direct-fit replacement for ISUZU light and medium-duty trucks. It connects the steering gear to the front wheel steering knuckle, transmitting steering force while allowing suspension articulation.
The tie rod end is a ball-and-socket joint that converts rotational motion from the steering gear into linear motion to turn the front wheels. This left-hand (LH) outer tie rod end features a left-hand thread design essential for correct pairing with the right-hand thread unit on the opposite side.
- Excessive steering play or wander
- Clunking or knocking noise from front suspension
- Uneven or accelerated front tire wear
- Steering vibration or shimmy
- Visible grease leakage from ball joint boot
