Detailed Description

Delphi TA2297PX is a left outer steering tie rod end designed for compatible Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, Ford F-150 Heritage, Lincoln Navigator, Lincoln Blackwood, and Ford F-250 applications. The Professional+ line focuses on reducing axial deflection under load, which helps maintain alignment and steering feel while supporting longer suspension life. Its steel housing and tie rod material, chloroprene rubber dust boot, and greaseable service design are suited to harsh road and weather exposure.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES3366T and Mevotech Supreme MES3366T for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Loose or wandering steering response
  • Uneven tire wear related to steering linkage wear
  • Alignment instability after chassis component wear
  • Noise or play from a worn outer tie rod end
  • Service downtime from a non-serviceable steering joint
