Detailed Description

This Delphi inner tie rod end is built for the steering gear and related components category, where accurate geometry and consistent joint movement matter. The steel tie rod material, POM bearing material, and coated housing support stable operation, while the straight, adjustable design helps maintain proper steering linkage alignment on Saab 9000 models from 1986 through 1998. Delphi TA1654 is a direct-fit style replacement for inner steering service on the Saab 9000.

This part cross-references Dorman Premium TI36010PR and Mevotech Supreme MS10723 for the same application. It also aligns with other referenced numbers used in the same Saab 9000 inner steering application, including Delphi TA1654.

What It Helps Repair

• Steering play or looseness at the inner tie rod
• Clunking or knocking from worn steering linkage components
• Uneven toe settings caused by worn steering joints
• Imprecise steering feel during lane changes or turns
• Front-end alignment issues related to inner steering wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and overall length before installation. Because this is an inner steering tie rod end for Saab 9000 applications, alignment should be checked after replacement to restore correct steering geometry. Inspect the surrounding steering components for wear before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to its aftermarket steering parts and tests components through extreme temperature cycling and extended salt-spray exposure. TA1654 is built to support OE-style performance expectations in inner steering service.
