Steer straight and keep your steering tight with the Delphi tie rod TL524, a right-side steering tie rod end assembly that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998 Volkswagen Beetle. This joint connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, letting the wheel pivot while holding the toe setting that governs tracking and even tire wear. When a worn tie rod end is the cause of loose steering, wandering, or a clunk when turning, this unit replaces it.
- Machined ball studs: the studs are machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
- Fatigue tested: Delphi fatigue-tests its tie rods to guard against failure.
- Anti-corrosion protection: a corrosion-resistant treatment is applied to each part for corrosion prevention and improved appearance.
- Accessories included: Delphi supplies the necessary accessories for a complete job.
Delphi draws on its OE steering experience, testing to the extreme with exposure below -40°C, above 120°C, and through 720 hours of salt spray, plus dimensional and material analysis for close OE compatibility.
