Wheel-off brake and suspension inspection in the RHP GARAGE workshop

Tie Rod Replacement — with new boot clips

A dull knock through the steering wheel over bumps, play, or a car that wanders on a straight road are common signs of a worn tie rod joint. We remove the tie rod end and boot, unscrew the tie rod from the rack and fit a new one, then refit the boot with new clips. We send a video of the play and agree the price before we start, and show you the old tie rod afterwards.

Price and time

From AED 210From 1 hour

Labour price including VAT; parts and consumables are paid separately.
Scope of work

The final cost depends on the model and the tie rod you choose: genuine or a quality alternative. A wheel alignment is needed afterwards, and a new boot if the old one is torn; we quote them in advance. Starting labour price from AED 210.

Questions before you book.

Straight answers about the inspection, approval and next step.

What is the difference between a tie rod and a tie rod end?

The tie rod screws into the rack and sits under the boot; the tie rod end connects it to the wheel. Either can wear, so we first find exactly where the play is.

For a short time and with care. The play grows, the steering becomes less precise and the tyres wear faster.

Usually from an hour per side, not counting the wheel alignment.
