Good To Know
Q: How do I know this tie rod fits my tractor? A: Match the model numbers listed in the title with your machine's serial number range, as minor sub-model changes can occur.
Q: Can I install this tie rod myself? A: Yes, with basic hand tools and a torque wrench, but you should measure the old rod length before removal to keep the toe setting close to spec.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
