Delphi TA5381 Steering Tie Rod End - Left Inner

Delphi TA5381 Left Inner Tie Rod End

Delphi TA5381 is a standard replacement steering tie rod end for the left inner position. It is built with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to support proper fit on the vehicle and consistent steering response on the road.

Compatible with 1983-1986 Nissan 720, left inner, this Delphi tie rod end is pre-greased, includes a dust boot, and uses a coated steel housing for added corrosion resistance. The bent design, threaded stud, and clockwise thread direction help match the original steering layout on the application.

Detailed Description

Delphi TA5381 is engineered for steering service where accurate geometry and dependable joint movement matter. Delphi applies OE-level testing to its aftermarket steering portfolio, including temperature exposure below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, plus extended salt-spray testing to evaluate corrosion resistance. The result is a tie rod end built to match original dimensions and materials as closely as possible for the 1983-1986 Nissan 720 left inner steering position. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products ES2900S for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Loose or wandering steering feel
• Excessive play in the inner tie rod connection
• Uneven front-end steering response
• Noise or clunking from worn steering linkage components
• Corrosion-related wear at the steering joint

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify left inner fitment before installation and compare the original part length, thread direction, and stud style to the new component. Because this is a steering linkage part, a professional alignment is recommended after replacement. Inspect related steering components, including the outer tie rod end and adjacent joints, for wear before reassembly.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE safety technology and extensive dimensional and material analysis to support aftermarket steering fit and function. The part is tested for extreme temperature exposure and salt-spray resistance to help validate durability in demanding service conditions.
