Delphi Steering Center Link P/N:TL448
Keep the steering linkage tight and precise with the Delphi Steering Center Link TL2033. As the central link in a parallelogram steering system, it ties the pitman arm to the idler arm and locates the inner tie-rod ends, passing driver input through to the wheels. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2002 Ford Crown Victoria, 1995-2002 Lincoln Town Car and 1995-2002 Mercury Grand Marquis.
Worn center links can show up as loose or wandering steering, excess play, or uneven tie-rod movement. If a failed center link is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually.
