Description
When you’re wrestling with wandering steering or fighting to keep your big Ford tractor going straight, the culprit’s often a worn inner track rod end. This critical connection point between your steering rack and the rest of your linkage takes a beating every time you turn, especially when you’re operating heavy implements or making tight headland turns. A loose connection here means sloppy steering and uneven tire wear – problems that only get worse under load.
What You’re Getting
- Precise 1-inch right-hand thread design ensures secure connection to your steering system
- 95mm overall length maintains factory steering geometry for proper handling
- Heavy-duty ball joint construction eliminates play and provides smooth operation
- Built to handle the extreme forces from large tractor steering operations
- Direct replacement part restores original tight steering feel
Built for Real Farm Work
Your Ford 5700, 7700, 8700, 9700, or TW series tractor is serious iron designed for demanding agricultural work. Whether you’re pulling wide tillage equipment across tough ground, operating a large square baler during long harvest days, or maneuvering around buildings with a front loader, these machines put tremendous stress on steering components. The inner track rod end bears the brunt of steering loads and road shock, making it a critical safety component.
Made to Last
This track rod end uses quality materials and construction designed to withstand the constant articulation and high loads of farm work. The precision ball joint maintains tight tolerances even after thousands of hours, while the robust threading provides the strength needed for large tractor applications. Quality construction means reliable performance when you need it most.
Installation Notes
This is the inner position rod end with 1-inch right-hand threads. Count the turns when removing your old end to maintain approximate toe-in settings. Clean all threads thoroughly and use anti-seize compound during installation. Professional front-end alignment is recommended after replacement to ensure proper steering geometry and prevent premature tire wear.
