Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA2166
Keep your steering tight and your tires tracking true with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End TA1975, an inner tie rod end that links the steering rack to the outer tie rod so your input reaches the wheels. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2003 Toyota RAV4 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket joint, testing to the extreme for OE-level performance: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, backed by extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
If a worn inner tie rod end is the cause of loose or wandering steering, play at the wheel, or uneven tire wear, this replaces it. Diagnose the cause before replacing, and have the alignment checked after installation.
