Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA1289
Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End (P/N: TA2493), a Delphi tie rod that connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle so front-wheel movement tracks your input. It installs as a direct-fit outer tie rod end for the 2006-2013 Suzuki Grand Vitara, 2007-2013 Suzuki SX4, and 2012 Suzuki SX4 Crossover — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. If a worn tie rod end is the cause of steering play, uneven tire wear, or a loose, wandering feel, this replaces it.
