Delphi TA1840 Steering Tie Rod End - Inner

Delphi TA1840 Inner Tie Rod End

Delphi TA1840 is a straight inner steering tie rod end built for OE-style replacement on select Dodge Colt and Mitsubishi Mirage applications. It uses a high-strength steel housing, a coated finish, and a pre-greased design to support consistent steering response in demanding road conditions.

Engineered from Delphi OE expertise, this TA1840 inner tie rod end is tested for temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and it is exposed to 720 hours of salt spray for corrosion evaluation. That makes it a practical choice for drivers servicing steering wear on 1989-1992 Dodge Colt and 1989-1992 Mitsubishi Mirage models.

Detailed Description

Delphi TA1840 is a standard replacement inner tie rod end designed for steering systems that require precise dimensional match and dependable material quality. It is a direct service part for 1992 Dodge Colt, 1989-1992 Mitsubishi Mirage, 1991 Dodge Colt Power, 1989 Dodge Colt Power, 1990-1991 Dodge Colt Manual, and 1990 Dodge Colt Manual and Power Steering applications.

Built with a steel tie rod body, coated surface, and POM bearing material, this Delphi inner tie rod end is intended to restore steering linkage integrity where wear, looseness, or play has developed. Its non-adjustable, straight configuration supports OE-style replacement on the specified Dodge Colt and Mitsubishi Mirage fitments.

What It Helps Address

• Steering wheel play caused by worn inner tie rod joints
• Clunking or looseness in the steering linkage
• Uneven steering response from degraded joint surfaces
• Corrosion-related wear on exposed steering components
• Restoration of proper steering feel on Colt and Mirage applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inner tie rod length, thread diameter, and thread pitch before installation. TA1840 is a non-adjustable straight inner tie rod end, so confirm the steering system configuration and match the listed fitment exactly for your Dodge Colt or Mitsubishi Mirage. Because the part is pre-greased and does not include a grease fitting or dust boot, inspect adjacent steering components and replace any worn hardware or boots separately if needed.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to support fit and function in aftermarket steering service. This part is evaluated for extreme temperature exposure and salt spray resistance to help validate durability in real-world conditions.
