Description
Borg & Beck BTR6097 front left outer tie rod end for the Jaguar XJ (X351), 2009 on. Replaces Jaguar C2D27457. New old stock, never fitted. The box is worn at the ends. The part is new and unused.
One in stock. Left hand side only. The matching right hand side is Borg & Beck BTR6098.
What it is. The outer ball joint on the steering arm, where the tie rod meets the front hub. A worn tie rod end lets the steering wander, knocks over bumps and wears the front tyres unevenly. It will also fail a WoF if there is play in the joint.
