Complete steering tie rod with part number 601212 from the TORS offer. This is a long rod (total length 539.50 mm) designed for steering systems in MANITOU machines, including telehandlers and forklifts. The component connects the wheel knuckle to the hydraulic cylinder, responsible for precise transfer of steering wheel movement to the wheels.
TORS brand products are a guarantee of solidity. The use of a 36 mm diameter rod ensures high resistance to bending forces that occur when working with a loader in difficult terrain, e.g., when the wheel hits a curb.

The rod fits selected Manitou machines. Before purchasing, be sure to measure the length of the old element (approx. 540 mm).
When installing the steering rod, it is necessary to check the condition of the knuckles. We recommend using new castle nuts (if required) and lithium grease to protect the cones from corrosion.
Play on a steering rod of this length can cause significant machine "wandering" at higher speeds. Breaking the rod while driving with a load threatens to tip the machine over and creates a direct threat to life.

In rod 601212, the cone dimensions are 27.10 mm (at the base) and 30.30 mm (at the base of the second cone). Note that these values are very close to other models, so caliper measurement is key.
Model 601212 is typically a fixed-length rod of 539.50 mm. Geometry adjustment is done on another element of the system or by screwing in the ends, if the design allows.
Most Manitou loaders have a 4WS (4 Wheel Steering) system. This means the rear wheels also steer, which requires precise synchronization of the steering rods of both axles. If one rod is loose, the machine can drive "sideways" (so-called crab steer) even with the steering wheel straight.
