Product Details and Specifications

The Delphi TA5353 steering tie rod end is engineered with a steel tie rod and housing to withstand the rigors of daily driving.

  • Restores precise steering response and vehicle stability

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, verify the part number TA5353 matches your Nissan Altima's requirements. The adjustable design allows for alignment fine-tuning after installation. Since the tie rod end is pre-greased, additional lubrication is not necessary. Use the included mounting hardware to secure the component properly. It is recommended to have a professional alignment performed after replacement to ensure optimal steering performance and tire wear.
