  • Front-end play or steering wander
  • Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering linkage
  • Clunking or knocking from the front inner steering area
  • Failed inspection due to steering component wear

Installation Notes

Confirm the inner thread specification and position before installation, especially on 2017 Lincoln MKT applications with the 16mm thread note. Always inspect related steering and suspension components, then perform a professional alignment after replacement. Verify the vehicle application against the fitment tab for your Ford Explorer or Lincoln MKT before ordering Delphi TA5005.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE engineering standards to its aftermarket steering portfolio and validates parts through dimensional and material analysis, temperature testing below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and 720 hours of salt-spray exposure.
