Help keep your steering linkage tight and responsive with the Delphi tie rod end TA5151, an inner tie rod for the 1987-1991 Toyota Camry, 1986-1989 Toyota Celica and 1990-1991 Lexus ES250. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. Delphi brings the know-how behind its OE safety technology, fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, to this aftermarket steering part, and includes the necessary accessories for a complete job.
Working at the inner end of the steering linkage, this joint pivots as the suspension travels while passing steering input toward the wheels. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment details.
- Tested to extremes: Delphi tests its steering parts at temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and exposes them to 720 hours of salt spray. Its dimensional and material analysis aims for the best possible compatibility between the OE and aftermarket part.
- Precision ball stud: Delphi machines the ball stud to micron tolerances, intended to support durability and smooth joint operation.
- Fatigue tested: Delphi puts its tie rods through fatigue testing designed to help avoid failure.
- Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and a clean appearance.
Signs a steering tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, extra play in the steering wheel, clunking when turning and uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the steering and suspension before replacing parts. A wheel alignment is typically needed after installation.
