Detailed Description

Delphi TA1662 is engineered for the front left outer steering position and is suited for vehicles that need a direct steering linkage replacement. Delphi applies OE-focused testing and material analysis to its aftermarket steering portfolio, with validation that includes extreme temperature exposure and extended salt-spray testing to support durability in demanding road conditions. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES3332R for the same application.

Compatible With 1994-2001 Acura Integra, left outer; 1997-2001 Honda CR-V, left outer; 1997-2000 Acura EL, left outer; 1992-2000 Honda Civic, left outer; and 1993-1997 Honda Civic del Sol, left outer. Delphi TA1662 is a practical choice when servicing steering play or restoring front-end response on Honda Civic and Acura Integra platforms.

What This Part Helps Address

• Steering looseness at the front left outer linkage
• Uneven or imprecise steering response
• Clunking or play from a worn tie rod end
• Front-end alignment issues caused by steering wear
• Dust and contamination entering the joint area

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm left outer fitment before installation and compare the removed part to Delphi TA1662 for match-up of end style and dimensions. After replacement, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to restore steering geometry. Inspect adjacent steering components, including the inner tie rod and related suspension joints, while the vehicle is apart.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-oriented engineering and testing for its steering components, including temperature cycling below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, plus 720 hours of salt-spray exposure. The TA1662 also benefits from Delphi’s dimensional and material analysis to support OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
