Detailed Description

Delphi TA1647 is engineered as a standard replacement steering tie rod end for BMW 528i, 525i, and 530i front inner steering service. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fit between the original part and the aftermarket replacement. The part is tested for temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and it is exposed to 720 hours of salt spray to evaluate durability in demanding conditions. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products EV800292 for the same application.
