Detailed Description

Delphi TA2659 is engineered as an OE-style steering tie rod end for the front inner position. Its straight body, 16.0 mm end 1 thread diameter, 14.0 mm end 2 thread diameter, and clockwise thread direction on both ends support accurate steering linkage setup. The part number TA2659 is also referenced in cross applications such as MOOG Chassis Products EV800689 and Mevotech Supreme MS60716 for the same application.

For Honda CR-V steering repair work, this tie rod end provides a direct replacement format that aligns with OE dimensional and material requirements. It is a practical choice when replacing worn steering linkage components on 2007-2011 Honda CR-V models with Japan production identified by the first VIN digit J.

What It Is Used For

• Correcting steering looseness caused by wear in the tie rod end
• Restoring steering response when linkage play develops
• Replacing a damaged or corroded steering joint
• Addressing uneven steering feel from worn front inner linkage parts
• Supporting alignment retention after steering component service

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2007-2011 Honda CR-V, inner. Verify the vehicle’s production details before ordering, since fitment notes specify Japan production identified by the first VIN digit J. The TA2659 is adjustable, so final steering geometry should be checked after installation.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects this steering part to extreme temperature testing and 720 hours of salt-spray exposure. Its OE-based dimensional and material analysis is used to maintain compatibility between the original and replacement part.
