Detailed Description

Delphi TA5472 is an inner steering tie rod end for the front steering system on Lexus GX460 applications from 2010 through 2022. It is engineered as a standard replacement part with a steel tie rod and steel housing, a black coated finish, and Polyoxymethylene (POM) bearing material for controlled movement at the steering linkage.

Common Repair Symptoms

• Excessive steering play or looseness at the wheel
• Clunking or knocking from the front steering linkage
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn inner steering components
• Steering wander or poor on-center feel
• Failed inspection due to steering linkage wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle position before ordering: this part is for the front inner steering location on Lexus GX460 models. Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and overall length against the original component before installation. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to restore steering geometry and tire wear characteristics. Because this is a steering component, inspect adjacent linkage parts for wear at the same time.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests steering components under extreme temperature and corrosion conditions, including sub-zero and high-heat exposure as well as extended salt-spray testing. TA5472 is built to support OE-level fit and material consistency for the Lexus GX460 steering system.
