Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA5173

Description

Tighten up loose, wandering steering with the Delphi tie rod — the inner Steering Tie Rod End TA5173, a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2004 Dodge Dakota and 2000-2003 Dodge Durango (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level detail). As an inner tie rod end, it links the steering gear to the outer tie rod, transferring steering input to the wheel while allowing suspension travel. If worn inner joints are behind play in the steering, a clunk when turning, a wandering feel, or uneven tire wear, this replaces the failed part.

OE-grade testing: built to withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C plus 720 hours of salt spray, with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
Micron-machined ball stud: the ball studs are machined to micron tolerances to support durability and smooth joint operation.
Fatigue tested: Delphi tie rods are fatigue tested to help avoid failure.
Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced aesthetics.

This Delphi tie rod end also ships with the necessary accessories for a complete job.
