Delphi applies OE-based dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper thread engagement, steering geometry, and rack-side fitment. The part number TA1865 is also referenced in aftermarket cross listings for the same application, including Mevotech Supreme MEV400 and MOOG EV400.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilt with a steel housing, steel tie rod material, and a coated black finish, this tie rod end is pre-greased for service-ready installation.
