Detailed Product Overview

Delphi TA5203 is a standard replacement steering tie rod end developed from OE-focused engineering practices. Delphi applies dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper fit and steering geometry, while its validation testing includes extreme temperature exposure and extended salt-spray testing for durability. The result is a front inner tie rod end that supports accurate steering response on the Acura TL and other listed applications.

With a 14.0 mm end 2 thread diameter, 18.0 mm end 1 thread diameter, and 1.5 thread pitch on both ends, the TA5203 is built for the specified steering linkage configuration. The unit uses a polyoxymethylene (POM) bearing material and a steel tube/housing structure for consistent operation in the front inner position. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 101-6814 and MOOG EV800581 for the same application.

Common Steering Issues This Part Can Address

• Excessive steering play or looseness at the front inner linkage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front inner position and thread specifications before installation. After replacement, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to restore steering geometry and tire wear characteristics. Inspect related steering components, including outer tie rod ends and boots, for wear before completing the repair.
