Keep steering input connected to the wheel with the Delphi tie rod end (MPN TL387), a direct-fit LEFT-side replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1993-2000 Volkswagen Jetta, 1990-1994 Volkswagen Passat and 1985-2000 Volkswagen Golf; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. A tie rod end links the steering linkage to the knuckle, transmitting steering input to the wheel while allowing for suspension and steering travel.
Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket steering assembly:
- OE-validated testing: Delphi tests to the extreme, withstanding temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C, plus 720 hours of salt-spray exposure; extensive dimensional and material analysis targets close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
- Micron-machined ball stud: the ball stud is machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
- Fatigue tested: Delphi tie rods are fatigue tested to help avoid failure.
- Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.
- Complete job: Delphi includes the necessary accessories.
Signs a tie rod end may need replacing include play or looseness in the joint, uneven or feathered tire wear, wandering steering, or a clunk when turning. If a worn LEFT tie rod end is the cause, this assembly replaces it.
