Detailed Description

The Delphi TA5702 inner tie rod end is engineered for steering systems that require a direct-fit replacement at the inner linkage point. It features a straight design, clockwise thread direction at both ends, and a tapered stud type for proper steering connection geometry. The part uses a steel housing, steel tie rod material, and a coated finish to support long-term service in demanding undercar conditions. Delphi validates its steering portfolio with extreme temperature exposure and salt-spray testing, along with dimensional and material analysis to support OE-style fit and function. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 101-5230 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Address

• Excessive steering play or looseness at the inner tie rod
• Clunking or knocking from the steering linkage
• Uneven steering response during lane changes or turns
• Wear-related steering instability on Toyota Echo and Scion xB models
• Failed inner tie rod end inspection during front-end service

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread direction, length, and position before installation. This inner tie rod end is not adjustable and does not include a grease fitting or dust boot. Because steering components affect alignment, a professional wheel alignment should follow replacement. Confirm vehicle-specific fitment for 2002-2005 Toyota Echo inner applications and 2004-2006 Scion xB inner applications before service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering, dimensional checks, and environmental testing to support aftermarket steering performance. The TA5702 is built as a standard replacement part for consistent fit and service life in the specified applications.
