Jeep Cherokee Tie Rods, Ends & Ball Joints

Steering wander at highway speed, a shimmy above fifty miles per hour, or a clunk from the front end when the Cherokee hits a dip are textbook signs that the tie rod ends or ball joints need attention — and the hardware that puts the steering and suspension geometry back where it belongs is what Jeep Cherokee Tie Rods, Ends & Ball Joints are about.

 

Upper and lower ball joint replacement on the Cherokee is worth doing as a pair when either one is worn, since they age at similar rates and leaving the other one in service after replacing one means coming back into the same job within a short interval. Heavy-duty aftermarket ball joints are the choice for a Cherokee that sees trail use, since the lateral loads generated by off-camber terrain exceed what the factory joint was rated for and OEM-spec replacements eventually end up in the same situation.
