Help finding inner tie rod.

Hey guys. My inner tire rod needs to be replaced and since I currently live in the Middle East, Toyota doesn’t have Tacoma parts. Anyone know if the FJ or Prado use the same inner tie rod? Thanks.

 

Looks the same. I just replaced mine yesterday I can check the part number when I get home

 

Oh thanks.

the one i posted is the actual Tacoma part number.
I want to know it a tie rod from a hilux Prado or FJ are the same so I can just get that.

 

^FJ/GX/4Runner tie rods have larger thread diameter going into the rack, so they won't work.

Megazip carries the OEM Tacoma part stocked in the UAE. Shipping is $23: https://www.megazip.net/zapchasti-dlya/toyota/end-sub-assy-steering-rack-4550309550?q=4550309550

Alternatively buy an aftermarket part from Rock Auto. FedEx shipping is $42 but part is way cheaper: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=10913176&cc=1431544&pt=7428&jsn=1394

 

I highly recommend oem tie rods after my experience with online specials that claimed to be heavy duty from extreme terrain. They were junk. I just replaced those 2 inners after installing in February 2023 I got about 20k miles from them. My originals got 130k miles so I went back to high $$ oem inner outer tie rods bc I don’t enjoy replacing them and paying for alignments time after time. Just my opinion from latest experience. That said if you can’t get a oem that’ll fit you’ll have to go aftermarket I guess

 

meow thanks for this!!

 

also, what do you think of this site?

They sell it for 60 dollars. Seems too good to be true. and they deliver it FedEx anywhere around the world.

^Seems to be a relatively new operation. If it were a less critical part I'd order from them.
