Hyundai Tie Rods for Sale in South Africa

A clunk on turns, feathered or scuffed front tyre wear, loose-feeling steering and a squeak at parking speeds. Grab the tyre at 9 and 3 o'clock, rock it firmly — play and a knock confirms an outer tie rod, inner CV joint or lower ball joint.

Our supplier network stocks Hyundai Getz, Accent and Citroen C4 right-hand tie rod ends from around R240. Pairs are always recommended. Request a free quote through our form with your model for both-sides parts plus fitting and wheel alignment.

Short-term at low speed, yes. Long-term, no — a worn tie rod can separate at the ball joint and you lose steering on that wheel. At motorway speed that's a crash. Book it in within a week of noticing the clunk, not a month.

Yes, always. The tie rod sets the toe angle of the wheel, so any disturbance needs a four-wheel alignment to reset. Skipping it wears the new tyres out in weeks and the car pulls to one side constantly. Budget alignment into the job from the start.

The inner tie rod threads into the steering rack under the rubber gaiter. The outer tie rod end screws onto the inner and connects to the wheel knuckle. Outers wear faster from ball joint exposure; inners usually fail from rack gaiter damage letting dirt in.
