Install the Apex Chassis TR131 Left Inner Tie Rod End from XDP onto your 1999-2004 Ford F-250/350/450/550 or 2000-2005 Ford Excursion and replaced the broken factory left inner tie rod end. The housing of the product is made from SAE 1045 solid steel forged alloy. CNC machining is used to ensure dimensional perfection of the parts and bearings, eliminating die wear issues. Ball studs are constructed of SAE 4140 hot-forged Chromoly for the strongest possible metallurgy. Induction heat treatment is provided to ensure precise heat treatment. Rolled threads and step threads are used to strengthen the threads and allow for easy installation and superior holding when torqued.
The bearing design features military-grade acetal bearings, the same material specified by the US military for Hummer ball joints. This material is dimensionally stable, anti-friction, and can withstand heavy loads. The phosphate finish is extremely durable and double-coated, with threads coated as well. The hardware is grade 8 - class 10.9, guaranteeing superior tensile strength. Lubrication is provided through the adjacent outer tie rod end, with pre-greasing and gull-winged grease grooves for improved lubrication disbursement around the ball stud.
