Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA5236
Keep your steering linkage tight and responsive with the Delphi tie rod, a right outer steering tie rod end (MPN TA5460) that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2011 Ford Focus. A tie rod end connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle and transmits steering input to the wheel; if a worn joint is behind loose or wandering steering, play in the wheel, or uneven tire wear, this Delphi tie rod end replaces the failed unit.
Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. This is the right outer unit, sold individually; for balanced steering, inspect the opposite side and replace worn joints as a pair when needed.
