Product Description
The 57724-3M900 inner tie rod end is engineered for Hyundai Genesis and Equus vehicles produced between 2009 and 2014. Manufactured to align with original equipment specifications, this steering component serves as a direct replacement for the factory-installed part, supporting commercial procurement for auto parts distributors, repair workshops, and luxury vehicle parts importers. Below is a detailed breakdown of its specifications, engineering features, and application guidance.

This tie rod end is produced from a single billet of alloy steel through precision closed-die hot forging. This manufacturing method creates a continuous unbroken grain flow that follows the curved shape of the rod body, which supports resistance to bending and impact shock loading from pothole strikes and curb impacts. Unlike cast or powder-metal alternatives, this forging process removes structural voids and reduces initiation points for fatigue cracks.
The ball stud rotates within a sintered PTFE-impregnated bearing liner. This liner provides consistent low friction across the full range of steering articulation angles. The bearing assembly is pre-filled with high-temperature lithium complex grease, which maintains steady steering effort and reduces the risk of stiff or uneven steering feel associated with dried-out tie rod ball joints.
The elastomer dust boot is designed with dual sealing lips. A primary lip blocks large debris from entering the assembly, while a secondary scraper lip removes contaminants from the ball stud surface during suspension compression and rebound motion. An integrated metal crimp ring secures the boot to the rod body, supporting retention during full articulation and high-pressure wash exposure.
Replacing worn tie rod ends with this component addresses excessive steering free play, corrects uneven tire wear caused by inconsistent toe-angle alignment, and reduces clunking or knocking noises over bumps from loose ball joint clearance. It also mitigates the risk of ball joint separation that can lead to loss of steering control. Professional wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to restore proper steering geometry.
This condition most commonly stems from worn inner ball joints with excessive free play, impact-damaged internal springs, grease loss from torn boots, and metal-to-metal wear from contaminant ingress. Diagnosis includes observing low-speed turning clunks, straight-line vehicle wander, over 15mm of steering wheel free play, and tire shake at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions when jacked. Solutions include replacing both left and right inner tie rods as a set, replacing worn outer tie rods simultaneously, counting removal turns to preserve approximate toe alignment, torquing the inner rod to 70-90 N·m, and completing a professional wheel alignment to factory toe-in specs.
Root causes include rubber aging and cracking from heat and ozone exposure, physical damage from road debris, and boot clamp failure that allows dirt and water ingress. Diagnosis involves visible inspection for cracks, tears, or full separation of the rubber boot, and observation of grease leakage around the boot area. Solutions depend on damage severity: for early-stage damage with no free play and clean internal grease, only the boot needs replacement; if free play or internal contamination is present, replace the complete 57724-3M900 assembly with a new boot clamp for a watertight seal.
Root causes include incorrect toe settings from worn tie rods that alter alignment, and bent inner tie rods from impact with curbs or potholes. Diagnosis can be made by feeling feathered or sawtoothed tread blocks when running a hand along the tire, observing faster wear on the inner or outer tread edge, and noticing an off-center steering wheel during straight-line driving. Solutions include replacing the worn or bent 57724-3M900 inner tie rod, performing a professional 4-wheel alignment, and rotating and balancing tires after the alignment is complete.
This is an aftermarket replacement part manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications. It provides equivalent fit, form, and function compared to the genuine part, at a more competitive price point.
This part fits Hyundai Genesis DH (BH) and Equus HL/LIM models from 2009 to 2014. For vehicles not listed, contact customer support with your VIN number for fit verification.
Standard automotive hand tools are sufficient for most installations. A torque wrench is recommended to ensure all fasteners are tightened to factory specifications. Refer to the professional service manual for your specific vehicle model for detailed instructions.
Warranty coverage follows the official warranty policy. It applies to manufacturing defects under normal use conditions. Improper installation, racing use, or modifications will void the warranty.
Replacing related wear items at the same time (such as both left and right sides, seals, gaskets, and fluids) is recommended to support balanced operation and reduce repeated labor costs.
Cross-reference the OEM part number 57724-3M900 with your vehicle's VIN through an authorized dealer or the online compatibility checker. The OEM part number is the most accurate identifier for correct part matching.
Production runs support a minimum order quantity of 500-1000 units, with full traceability across the production process. Two packaging categories are available: genuine (MOBIS) standard packaging, and aftermarket/brand packaging which includes neutral packaging (most widely used) and custom brand packaging. This supply structure supports commercial procurement for auto parts importers, distributors, and repair service operators across European and North American markets.
