Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA2242

Description

Steer with confidence and tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Delphi tie rod, an outer Steering Tie Rod End (MPN TA2242) that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1985-1992 Toyota Cressida. This outer tie rod end connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transmitting steering input to the front wheel while allowing the joint to articulate as the suspension moves.

Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket joint, backing it with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.

Tested to the extreme: validated below -40°C and above 120°C and subjected to 720 hours of salt spray.
Micron-tolerance ball stud: machined to fine tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
Fatigue tested to help guard against premature joint failure.
Anti-corrosion protection applied to each part for corrosion prevention and improved appearance.

Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. Signs this outer tie rod end may need replacing include steering-wheel play, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Tie rod ends install as a left/right pair, so replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced steering feel.
