Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA1652
Steer with confidence on your classic BMW or Porsche — the Delphi tie rod end (P/N TA5011) is the outer tie rod end that connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transferring your steering input to the wheel while allowing for suspension travel. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1977-1983 BMW 320I, 1976-1977 Porsche 911, and 1978-1979 Porsche 930.
Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to its aftermarket portfolio, and this Delphi tie rod end is built to that standard:
Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. Signs an outer tie rod end may need replacing include play in the steering, uneven tire wear, or a clunk or looseness felt through the wheel — if a worn outer tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
