Rack end

Rack ends, also known as tie rod ends, are critical components of a car’s steering system. They connect the steering rack to the steering knuckles, transmitting steering input from the steering wheel to the wheels. Rack ends allow for smooth and controlled steering movements, facilitating vehicle maneuverability and responsiveness. They help maintain proper wheel alignment, ensuring even tire wear and optimal handling. Regular inspection and maintenance of rack ends are crucial for safe driving and steering precision. By linking the steering system components, rack ends play a key role in the overall functionality and safety of the vehicle’s steering system.
