Detailed Description

Delphi TA3208 is engineered for the left outer steering position on Lexus IS and GS models, including Lexus IS300, IS350, IS200t, IS250, IS F, GS350, GS450h, GS460, GS430, and GS300 applications. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fitment between the original steering component and the aftermarket replacement. The part is tested across extreme temperature ranges and salt-spray exposure to verify durability in demanding road conditions.

This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 101-7065 and MOOG Chassis Products ES800213 for the same application. Part number TA3208 is a practical choice when replacing a worn left outer tie rod end on Lexus steering systems that require a female, clockwise-threaded design.

Common Repair Symptoms

• Steering play or looseness at the front end
• Clunking or knocking noises during turns
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering linkage
• Loose or imprecise steering response
• Visible wear at the outer tie rod end

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify left outer position, thread direction, and thread size before installation. Because this tie rod end is non-adjustable and does not include mounting hardware, inspect the surrounding steering linkage and alignment settings during service. A professional wheel alignment is recommended after replacement to restore steering geometry.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused testing and material validation for its steering portfolio, including temperature cycling and corrosion exposure, to support consistent replacement quality. The TA3208 is a standard replacement steering component built to match the application requirements of select Lexus vehicles.
