Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and position before installation. Delphi TA5358 is a straight, non-adjustable tie rod end with threaded stud construction, so alignment should be checked after replacement. Confirm rear outer placement on the vehicle and inspect related steering components for wear before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects its steering components to temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt-spray exposure, to evaluate corrosion resistance and durability. The brand also uses OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to support consistent fit and performance in aftermarket steering applications.
