BMW X5 Tie Rod

The Tie Rod of a BMW X5 is designed to allow the steering wheel operated by the driver to turn the wheel in a controlled manner. This concentrates on giving the BMW X5 a stable driving experience on the road. The Tie Rod assembly sits between the steering rack and the knuckles and has an inner and an outer end with a ball and socket joint that pivots nicely. This allows for the side-to-side movement of the steering. The components also flex up and down as the suspension travels. The early generations of X5 with rack and pinion steering manage motion transfer entirely on these Tie Rod links, a simple design with fewer parts that reportedly has quick response. Subsequent BMW versions outfitted with a traditional recirculating ball box utilize a parallelogram linkage. This linkage ultimately culminates in a Tie Rod at each wheel. However, an additional center link, Pitman arm, and idler arm are incorporated to enhance leverage on heavier trims. In this configuration, the inner end is directly threaded into the rack or sleeve while the outer Tie Rod can be made adjustable to set toe. This ensures that the driver still gets the crisp handling signature of being a BMW, like the X5.
