Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA3004
Steer tight and true with the Delphi tie rod, an inner Steering Tie Rod End (MPN TA5282) that installs as a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of full-size Ford, Mercury and Lincoln applications — including the 1965-1972 Ford Galaxie 500, 1965-1972 Ford Custom 500, 1967-1972 Ford LTD, 1967-1971 Ford Thunderbird and 1968-1971 Lincoln Mark III. A tie rod end connects the steering linkage to the knuckle, transmitting steering input to the wheel while its ball stud pivots as the wheels turn and travel.
Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket part:
Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. If a worn tie rod end is behind loose or wandering steering, play in the linkage, or uneven tire wear, this replaces the inner unit. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full vehicle and engine list.
