Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA1687
Help keep steering response tight and precise with the Delphi tie rod end (MPN TA5056), an inner tie rod end that links the steering gear to the outer tie rod and transmits steering input to the wheels. It's a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1985-1991 Dodge Colt, 1985-1991 Plymouth Colt and 1989-1991 Eagle Vista. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level fitment.
Built on Delphi's OE steering expertise, this part is validated to the extreme: rated from below -40°C to over 120°C and put through 720 hours of salt-spray exposure, with dimensional and material analysis to keep the aftermarket part close to the OE piece.
Signs an inner tie rod end may need replacing include loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and clunking or play felt through the wheel. If a worn tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
