Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End TA2892, an inner tie rod end that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2006 Acura MDX and 2003-2008 Honda Pilot.
Inner tie rod end: connects the steering rack/center link to the outer tie rod end, forming the pivoting link that transfers steering input to the front wheels.
Pivoting joint: allows the linkage to articulate as the steering turns and the suspension moves, helping maintain a solid, controlled connection between rack and wheel.
Signs it may need replacing: loose or wandering steering, a clunk or knock when turning or over bumps, uneven front tire wear, or noticeable play in the linkage. If a worn inner tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
Wear part: replaces a tie rod end that has developed play from age and road use.
After installation, have the front toe alignment checked, since replacing steering linkage components can affect it.
It's an inner steering tie rod end. It connects the steering rack to the outer tie rod end, transferring steering input to the front wheel while allowing the linkage to pivot.
Which vehicles does it fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2006 Acura MDX and the 2003-2008 Honda Pilot. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm it matches your vehicle before ordering.
Is this an inner or outer tie rod end?
This is the inner tie rod end, which links the steering rack/center link to the outer tie rod end in the steering linkage.
How do I know if my tie rod end needs replacing?
Loose or wandering steering, a clunk or knock when turning or over bumps, uneven front tire wear, or play in the linkage can be signs. Have it diagnosed to confirm the cause before replacing.
Do I need an alignment after installing it?
Yes—replacing a tie rod end can change front toe, so have the alignment checked afterward per your vehicle's service procedure.
