Delphi TA1496 Steering Tie Rod End - Right Outer

Delphi TA1496 Front Right Outer Tie Rod End

Delphi TA1496 is a standard replacement steering tie rod end for the front right outer position. It is built with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper steering geometry on Volvo applications, including Volvo C70, S70, V70, S90, V90, 850, and 960.

Key Features

• Pre-greased design with no grease fitting required
• Dust boot included to help protect the joint from contamination
• Steel housing and steel tie rod construction with coated finish
• Bent style with threaded stud design
• Mounting hardware included
• Clockwise thread direction on both ends
• Standard replacement grade for front right outer steering service

Detailed Description

Delphi TA1496 tie rod end is engineered for steering service where precise fit and consistent joint movement matter. Delphi subjects its steering components to extreme temperature cycling and extended salt-spray exposure, then validates dimensions and materials to support OE-style compatibility. This part number TA1496 is listed for the front right outer position and is a direct service option for Volvo steering repairs on the C70, S70, V70, S90, V90, 850, and 960.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES3256 and Mevotech Supreme MES3256 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Loose or wandering steering feel at the front right wheel
• Clunking or play from a worn outer tie rod end
• Uneven tire wear caused by steering linkage wear
• Steering response issues from damaged joint components
• Contamination-related wear when the dust boot is compromised

Installation Notes and Tips

Install Delphi TA1496 on the front right outer steering position only. Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and overall dimensions against the removed part before installation. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to restore steering geometry and tire wear characteristics. For 1997-1998 Volvo S90 applications, note the TRW design steering tie rod end for rack and pinion gear.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE engineering methods to its aftermarket steering portfolio and validates parts through temperature and corrosion testing, including exposure below -40 degrees C, above 120 degrees C, and 720 hours of salt spray. That testing supports consistent fit and durability for Volvo steering service.
