Keep your steering tight and your front wheels pointed true with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End (TA1873), the inner tie rod end that connects your steering linkage and locates the front wheels. This 4RUNNER tie rod drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1986-1991 Toyota 4Runner and 1986-1991 Toyota Pickup — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
Delphi brings its OE steering expertise to the aftermarket, testing to the extreme: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, while extensive dimensional and material analysis targets close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
Worn tie rod ends can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or a clunk from the steering linkage — if the inner tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Sold individually; inspect both sides and replace as a matched pair for balanced steering.
