The Delphi tie rod — Steering Tie Rod End TA5067 — is the outer joint that ties the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transmitting steering input to turn the wheel while its ball stud pivots freely with steering and suspension movement. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on the 2001-2009 Ford Escape, the 2001-2006 and 2008-2009 Mazda Tribute, and the 2005-2009 Mercury Mariner.
- Micron-machined ball stud: the stud is machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
- Fatigue tested: tested to help avoid in-service failure.
- Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.
- OE-developed: built on Delphi's OE steering expertise, validated below -40°C and above 120°C and through 720 hours of salt spray, with dimensional and material analysis for OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
- Includes accessories: comes with the necessary accessories for a complete job.
Signs this outer tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, a knock or clunk felt through the wheel when turning, and uneven or accelerated tire wear — diagnose the cause before replacing. This listing is for one tie rod end; many technicians replace the left and right sides together, and a wheel alignment should follow installation.
