Detailed Description

The Delphi TA3373 tie rod end is built to restore steering linkage integrity on vehicles that need a left outer steering tie rod end replacement. Delphi subjects its steering components to extreme temperature and salt-spray testing and uses OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper compatibility with the original steering geometry. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 101-8112 for the same application.

Compatible With 2016-2019 Kia Optima, left outer; 2017-2019 Kia Sportage, left outer; 2016-2018 Hyundai Tucson, left outer; 2016-2017 Hyundai Sonata, left outer; and 2017 Kia Cadenza, left outer. Delphi TA3373 is a practical choice when replacing worn steering linkage components on these Kia and Hyundai models.

What It Helps Address

• Loose or imprecise steering feel
• Front-end wandering or poor directional stability
• Clunking or play from a worn outer tie rod end
• Uneven tire wear caused by steering linkage wear
• Restoring proper toe control after suspension service

Installation Notes

Verify left outer fitment before installation and confirm thread size, pitch, and steering linkage orientation against the original part. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to set toe and protect tire wear. Inspect the adjacent steering and suspension components for wear while the assembly is apart.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-based engineering and durability testing to its aftermarket steering portfolio, including exposure to extreme temperatures and extended salt-spray testing. The TA3373 is built to support consistent fit and long-term service in demanding steering applications.
