Product Details

The Delphi TA1225 tie rod end is engineered for front outer steering service where precise linkage movement and stable wheel control matter. It features a straight design, black coated finish, and a chloroprene rubber dust boot to help protect the joint from road contamination. The unit is pre-greased and uses a plastic bearing material, while the steel housing and steel tie rod provide a durable replacement structure. Delphi applies OE-style dimensional and material analysis to help maintain fitment consistency across applications including Toyota Corolla, Toyota Camry, Toyota Celica, Toyota RAV4, Toyota Echo, Toyota Tercel, Scion xA, Scion xB, Chevrolet Prizm, Geo Prizm, Lexus ES250, and Chevrolet Nova. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES2382 and Mevotech Supreme MES2382 for the same application. Part number TA1225 is also listed for multiple OE-style interchange references in this application range.
