Delphi TA2538 Inner Tie Rod End

Delphi TA2538 is a straight inner steering tie rod end built for OE-style steering repair on select Jeep Liberty models. It uses high-strength steel construction, a coated finish, and fixed dimensions for direct replacement service on the specified applications.

  • Fits 2002-2004 Jeep Liberty, inner steering position
  • Straight tie rod end design for inner steering linkage service
  • High-strength steel housing with steel tie rod material
  • Coated finish for added surface protection
  • Male-to-male end configuration with threaded stud design
  • Mounting hardware included
  • Standard replacement grade for steering system repair

OE-Style Steering Replacement

Delphi applies OE engineering and dimensional analysis to its aftermarket steering portfolio, and the TA2538 follows that approach with fixed thread specifications, standard replacement construction, and a direct inner-position layout. This part is a practical choice for restoring steering linkage integrity on 2002-2004 Jeep Liberty models when the original inner tie rod end is worn or damaged. This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme MEV402 and MOOG Chassis Products EV800407 for the same application.

What It Helps Repair

  • Excessive steering play from a worn inner tie rod end
  • Clunking or looseness in the steering linkage
  • Uneven steering response caused by linkage wear
  • Front-end alignment issues related to steering component wear
  • Corrosion-related replacement needs in the steering system

Installation Notes

Verify thread direction, thread pitch, and inner-position fitment before installation. Delphi TA2538 is not adjustable, so final steering alignment should be checked after replacement. The part is not pre-greased and does not include a dust boot or grease fitting, so inspect adjoining steering components during service. Fits 2002-2004 Jeep Liberty, inner.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects steering components to temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt-spray exposure testing, to evaluate durability and material performance. The TA2538 is a standard replacement steering tie rod end engineered with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis.
