Do you know where your car wheels get all the force that it needs in rotating? The rotating action of your car wheels is actually governed by a complex system of parts known as the suspension system. The suspension system allows your car to move smoothly down the road, so your car is prevented from shaking into pieces. As a system, it is made up of several working components-and one of these is the BMW 5 Series tie rod.

Your car wheels turn because the BMW 5 Series tie rod serve the function of transmitting the right amount of force from the rack gear or the steering link to the steering knuckle. It is composed of an outer tie rod end and an inner tie rod end which makes it possible for this suspension component to become adjustable. A critical alignment angle known as the vehicle’s “toe” is set with the adjustment of the outer tie rod end to the adjusting sleeve.

On cars with recirculating gears and conventional suspension systems, the tie rod is used to connect the steering knuckle and center link. However, this suspension system component is used to connect the steering knuckle and the end of the rack on cars with rack and pinion steering gears and MacPherson strut suspension systems. It buckles under the action of compressive forces, because the radius of gyration to the ratio of the length of its cross section is usually very large.

It would be advisable that you check your suspension and steering system at least once a year. If you include complete wheel alignment, you can be sure that your BMW 5 Series tie rod will have extended service life. Failure to do this would increase your chances of suspension and ride handling problems like excessive tire wear, wandering, and erratic steering. So if you found out that your stock tie rod has been worn out, do not think twice on replacing it with a new one.
