In this review the TRQ Front Outer Tie Rod Set is judged as a straightforward, vehicle-specific replacement for owners of 2003-2007 INFINITI G35 and 2003-2009 Nissan 350Z models. The bottom line: this two-piece kit offers a direct fit OE replacement that saves time on installation and restores steering feel without the premium price of an original part.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed to replace the front driver and passenger outer tie rods exactly for the listed vehicle years so no major modifications are required.
• OE Replacement Kit: Supplies both outer tie rods in one purchase, letting both sides be renewed at once to restore balanced steering response.
• Complete Two-Piece Set: Includes one front driver side and one front passenger side outer tie rod, simplifying parts sourcing and ensuring matched components.
• Multiple Reference Numbers: Cross-referenced with several aftermarket codes so technicians can confirm compatibility against dealer parts lists.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: The listing highlights checking fitment for exact model years and configurations, reducing the chance of ordering the wrong part.

Who It's For

This kit is best for DIYers and independent shops working on 2003-2006 INFINITI G35 sedans, 2007 G35 coupes, and 2003-2009 Nissan 350Zs who need a direct-fit outer tie rod replacement. It suits owners who prefer replacing both outer tie rods at the same time to maintain symmetrical steering performance.

Drivers looking for a factory-branded dealer part or those who require a factory grease zerk for on-going lubrication may want to look elsewhere, since some users note differences in thread condition and the absence of a grease fitting compared with some OEM parts.
