Product Description

Ensure precise steering response in your BMW with the Arrowhead Tie Rod End RH, designed for the steering, suspension, and axles system. This right-hand tie rod end plays a crucial role in maintaining direct connection between your steering rack and wheel, allowing for accurate and controlled handling.

This part is specifically compatible with selected BMW models, including various 1 Series (E81, E82, E87, E88), 3 Series (E90), X1 (E84), and Z4 (E89). Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to guarantee correct fitment.
