What This Product Does:
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Steering play or slop — a vague or loose feeling in the steering, particularly around straight-ahead or under small inputs.
- Knocking or clicking noise from the front end, especially when going over bumps or during steering movements, indicating the joint is moving where it shouldn’t.
- Front alignment drifting or uneven tyre wear — because the rod end is no longer maintaining correct alignment under load.
- Delayed or imprecise steering response — the front wheels might not change direction as promptly because the linkage has movement built in.
- Inspection shows visible wear or looseness — The joint may have excessive play when physically moved, or the boot might be torn or missing, exposing the internals to dirt or contamination.
- A worn or loose inner track rod joint undermines your front-end suspension geometry and steering accuracy. Replacing with a new correct part ensures the steering system functions as intended, renewing precision and responsiveness.
- On a Porsche 964 (especially C4 or RS models) where handling and driver feedback are key, a tight inner joint helps maintain the connection between driver input and front-wheel behaviour — critical for both everyday driving and spirited use.
- It also reduces the risk of secondary wear: when one joint in the system is loose, other components (tie rods, rack ends, knuckles) may suffer increased stress or wear.
- From a safety and inspection viewpoint, worn rod ends are common failure items during vehicle exams — replacing the inner joint is part of good maintenance.
- If modifications (wider tyres, stiffer suspension, track use) are in place, ensuring all steering joints are in top order preserves the benefit of those upgrades and avoids a “weak link” in the steering chain.
