Detailed Description

Delphi TA3262 is designed for steering systems that require a front inner tie rod end with precise thread engagement and stable construction. The part measures 206.0 mm from stud center to end, uses a 16.0 mm thread diameter on both ends, and features a 1.5 thread pitch at the end 2 connection. Its steel tube and housing construction, along with a POM bearing material, support consistent steering response in everyday driving conditions. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 13354542) for the same application.

Fits 2016-2019 Buick Cascada, inner. Fits 2014-2016 Cadillac ELR, inner. Delphi TA3262 is a direct-fit steering service part for these front inner applications, including Buick Cascada and Cadillac ELR models listed in the fitment data.

Common Issues This Part Can Help Address

• Excessive steering play from a worn inner tie rod end
• Loose or imprecise steering feel
• Uneven front tire wear caused by steering linkage wear
• Noisy steering linkage movement during turns
• Improper toe settings that cannot be held during alignment

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the steering linkage, outer tie rod ends, and alignment settings before installation. Because this is a front inner steering component, a professional wheel alignment is recommended after replacement to restore correct toe and steering response. Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and position before installation on Buick Cascada or Cadillac ELR applications.

Quality Assurance
