Product Description

This Arrowhead Tie Rod Assembly LH is designed for the steering systems of select Volkswagen models, ensuring precise handling and safe road control. The left-hand (LH) tie rod assembly is a crucial part of your vehicle's steering linkage, connecting the steering rack to the steering knuckle. Its robust construction includes a ball joint and threaded ends for secure adjustment and smooth articulation, supporting accurate wheel alignment and responsive steering.

This assembly is compatible with Volkswagen vehicles. Always confirm your specific model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before placing your order.

Common symptoms of a worn or failing tie rod assembly include uneven tyre wear, loose or unresponsive steering, clunking noises when turning, vibration in the steering wheel, misaligned steering, or difficulty keeping the vehicle straight. If you notice any of these signs, your tie rod may need attention.

Replacing the tie rod assembly is essential when you experience excessive play in the steering, visible damage to the protective boot, or after a suspension or steering impact. Timely replacement helps maintain safe handling and prevents further damage to your steering and suspension components.
