What It Helps Address

  • Loose or imprecise steering feel from worn inner tie rod components

  • Uneven steering response from damaged or fatigued steering hardware
  • Noise or clunking associated with steering linkage movement
  • Restoration of proper toe control after steering service

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle’s inner steering position before ordering, since this part is listed for inner applications only. Confirm thread size, thread direction, and overall dimensions against the removed component to ensure proper match on your Ford Focus, Ford Escape, Ford C-Max, or Ford Transit Connect.

Because this tie rod end is pre-greased and not greaseable, no grease fitting is provided. Alignment should be checked after steering linkage replacement.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to its aftermarket steering portfolio and subjects parts to extreme temperature and salt-spray testing to evaluate durability. This part number is engineered as a standard replacement steering component for consistent fit and performance.
