Tie Rod End 5/8-18LH x 9in

The Tie Rod End 5/8-18LH x 9in from ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE (ALL 55904) is an OE-style replacement inner tie rod designed for vintage GM A-Body vehicles from 1968–1970. If you're restoring a classic muscle car or high-performance street rod, this component is essential for safe steering geometry and suspension alignment. Whether you're a weekend racer, classic car enthusiast, or serious restoration builder, a quality tie rod end directly impacts your vehicle's steering response, stability in turns, and long-term durability.

This tie rod end features a 5/8-18 left-hand thread connection and measures 9 inches in overall length, matching OEM specifications for proper fitment and load distribution. The steel construction with a greasable ball joint design allows for regular maintenance—a critical advantage for performance builds where suspension geometry can shift under load. The left-hand thread variant ensures correct directional seating on A-Body steering linkage, preventing premature wear and maintaining consistent toe-in over thousands of miles. The robust engineering supports both street driving and track use without sacrifice.

Builders restoring 1968–1970 GM A-Body platforms—including Chevrolet Chevelle, Pontiac Tempest, and Oldsmobile Cutlass models—will find this replacement inner tie rod essential for complete steering system overhaul. The greasable design means you can maintain the joint throughout the life of your build, keeping friction low and responsiveness high. Pair this with a quality outer tie rod and steering box for a complete, tight steering system that delivers confidence on road or strip. Installation requires basic hand tools and alignment following OEM specifications.
