Delphi TA3056 Steering Tie Rod End - Left Outer

Delphi TA3056 Front Left Outer Tie Rod End

Delphi TA3056 is a standard replacement steering tie rod end built for the front left outer position. It is engineered with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper steering geometry on vehicles such as the Nissan Armada, Nissan TITAN, and INFINITI QX56/QX80.

Delphi applies OE safety and durability testing to its aftermarket steering parts, including exposure to extreme temperatures and extended salt-spray testing. The result is a tie rod end built for consistent fitment, corrosion resistance, and dependable steering response.

Detailed Description

Delphi TA3056 is built as an OE-style steering tie rod end for the front left outer position. It features a female end 2, clockwise thread direction on both ends, a threaded stud type, and a bent body layout. The unit is pre-greased and includes a dust boot made from chloroprene rubber (CR), helping protect the joint from road contamination. With a steel housing, steel tie rod material, coated finish, and included mounting hardware, this part is specified for direct replacement service on select Nissan and INFINITI vehicles. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES800031 for the same application.

Compatible With 2014-2022 INFINITI QX80, left outer; 2017-2022 Nissan Armada, left outer; 2005-2015 Nissan Armada, left outer; 2004-2015 Nissan TITAN, left outer; 2004-2013 INFINITI QX56, left outer; and 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada, left outer. Delphi TA3056 is a practical choice when replacing worn steering linkage on these platforms, including Nissan Armada and INFINITI QX56/QX80 applications.

What It Helps Address

• Steering play or looseness at the front left outer linkage
• Clunking or knocking from worn tie rod joints
• Uneven tire wear caused by steering geometry wear
• Imprecise steering feel or wandering at the wheel
• Corrosion-related joint wear in exposed steering components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s front left outer steering position before installation and confirm thread direction, dimensions, and end style against the removed part. After replacement, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to restore steering geometry and tire wear characteristics. Delphi TA3056 includes mounting hardware and a dust boot, and its pre-greased design reduces prep time during service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-oriented testing and dimensional analysis for its steering portfolio. This part is evaluated for temperature extremes and salt-spray exposure to support durability in demanding road conditions.
