The steering system of the GMC Yukon Tie Rod communicates the inputs from the steering wheel to the front wheels. It connects the steering gear to the knuckles through a ball and socket joint that rotates as the suspension moves, thus converting the driver motion into the wheel angles. This reliable connection assures GMC drivers in sharp turns. Older Yukon models are supported by a parallelogram linkage that makes use of a Pitman arm for movement of the center link. The Tie Rod attaches at either end in order to steer the knuckles. Addition of a cross steer layout takes place in some versions, having a longer rod that is connected across the frame. Subsequent Yukon generations utilize rack and pinion steering systems that integrate an inner and outer Tie Rod directly into the rack so that fewer parts are required. Each Tie Rod is sealed by rubber boots that keep the grease in and the grit out. Any loosening at the sockets will quickly create play and wandering. Regular inspections keep every GMC on the road responsive and vigorous. If the Tie Rod is ignored as it grows worn, the steering will feel vague and unsafe.
