This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme (e.g., MEV375) for the same application.

Common Steering Issues It Can Address

• Excessive steering play at the front inner linkage
• Loose or inconsistent steering response
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and overall length before installation. Delphi TA1831 is pre-greased and does not include a grease fitting or dust boot. Because this is a front inner steering component, alignment should be checked after installation on Mazda Miata vehicles. Confirm fitment against the vehicle year and steering position before service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused testing and material validation for its steering portfolio, including temperature cycling and salt-spray exposure, to support consistent performance in aftermarket replacement use. The TA1831 is built as a standard replacement part for select Mazda Miata front inner steering applications.
