Description

Tighten up vague steering with the Delphi tie rod, an OUTER Steering Tie Rod End (MPN TA5318) that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed 2006-2007 Ford Focus. A tie rod end connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transmitting steering input to the wheel while allowing for suspension travel. Signs this outer joint may need replacing include loose or vague steering, a knock when turning, play at the joint, or uneven tire wear.

OE safety technology: Delphi tests to the extreme — parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
Micron-machined ball stud: the ball stud is machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
Fatigue tested: tested to help guard against failure.
Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced aesthetics.
Complete job: includes the necessary accessories.

This Delphi tie rod end fits the 2006-2007 Ford Focus — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine details. For balanced steering, have the alignment checked after installation.
