Detailed Description

The Delphi TA1863 steering tie rod end is engineered for the front right outer position and built to match OE-style fit and function. It features a steel housing, steel tie rod material, plastic bearing material, and a coated finish for added durability. The unit is pre-greased, greaseable-free, and includes a dust boot to help protect the joint from road contamination. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to support proper compatibility between the original part and the aftermarket replacement.
