Detailed Description

Delphi TA3088 is an inner steering tie rod end for the Toyota RAV4, covering model years 2006 through 2018. This component uses a straight, non-adjustable design with 16.0 mm thread diameter at both ends, 1.5 thread pitch, and clockwise thread direction. The steel housing and steel tie rod construction are paired with a coated finish to support long-term steering system service. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper compatibility with the original steering geometry, and the part is tested for temperature extremes and salt spray exposure as part of its aftermarket steering validation process. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products EV800328 for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Excessive steering play in the inner tie rod area
• Clunking or looseness from worn steering linkage components
• Uneven steering response during lane changes or turns
• Front-end alignment issues caused by worn steering hardware
• Restoring steering feel on a Toyota RAV4 with inner tie rod wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the inner position and thread specifications before installation on the Toyota RAV4. Because this is a non-greaseable, non-adjustable steering component, inspect related steering parts, boots, and alignment settings during service. Professional alignment is recommended after replacement to confirm steering wheel center and toe settings. Part number TA3088 should be matched to the vehicle application before installation.
