Product Details

This steering tie rod end adjusting sleeve is used to set and maintain proper toe alignment in the steering linkage. Delphi applies OE dimensional and material analysis to help ensure fit and compatibility with the original steering system, while the part is tested for extreme temperature exposure and salt spray resistance. The TA5130 is a direct-fit steering hardware replacement for select 1999-2013 Ford and Ram trucks, including Ford Excursion, Ford F-250 Super Duty, Ford F-350 Super Duty, Ram 1500, Ram 2500, and Ram 3500.

This part cross-references Dorman Premium AS85192PR for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Loose or inaccurate steering linkage adjustment
• Uneven front tire wear caused by incorrect toe settings
• Steering wander or poor straight-line tracking
• Corrosion-related wear in the steering sleeve area
• Service replacement for worn steering arm to steering arm hardware

Installation Notes

Install the sleeve in the correct position for your vehicle: left (steering arm to steering arm) or steering arm to steering arm, depending on application. Verify thread engagement, alignment settings, and vehicle-specific fitment before final tightening. Because this component affects steering geometry, a professional alignment is recommended after installation. Confirm the application using the vehicle’s fitment data before ordering Delphi TA5130.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering for its aftermarket steering portfolio and subjects parts to temperature cycling below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with 720 hours of salt spray testing. Delphi TA5130 is built as a standard replacement steering component for long-term service in demanding truck applications.
