Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA1146
Steer with confidence using the Delphi tie rod end TA2267, an outer steering joint that links the steering linkage to the knuckle and transmits your steering input to the front wheel while allowing for normal steering and suspension travel. It installs as a direct-fit replacement across a long list of Ford, Lincoln and Mercury full-size cars, including the 1992-2002 Ford Crown Victoria, the 1981-2002 Lincoln Town Car and the 1979-2002 Mercury Grand Marquis.
Signs this outer tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, and play or clunking felt through the wheel. Have the cause diagnosed, since these symptoms can come from other worn steering or suspension parts.
