Description

Keep your steering tight and responsive with the Delphi inner tie rod end TA5184, a direct-fit replacement that drops onto the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer. Delphi builds its aftermarket steering parts on the same OE safety technology fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, applying extensive dimensional and material analysis for close compatibility between the OE and the replacement part.

This inner tie rod end links the steering gear to the outer joint, transmitting steering input to the wheel. When an inner tie rod wears, you may notice loose or wandering steering, a knocking sensation over bumps, or uneven tire wear — signs the joint may need replacing.

OE-level testing: validated below -40°C and above 120°C, plus 720 hours of salt-spray exposure.
Micron-tolerance ball stud: machined for durability and smooth joint operation.
Fatigue tested to help guard against premature failure.
Anti-corrosion protection applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.
