Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Delphi tie rod end TA2689, an inner tie rod end that links the steering linkage to the rest of the steering system and transmits driver input through its pivoting ball-stud joint. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1995 Volvo 940, 1995-1997 Volvo 960, 1997-1998 Volvo S90, and 1997-1998 Volvo V90 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level coverage.
As an inner tie rod end, worn joints can show up as play or looseness in the steering, a clunk, or uneven tire wear. If a failed inner tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
