Detailed Description

Delphi TA6347 is engineered for steering linkage replacement where correct geometry and durable construction matter. Delphi applies OE dimensional and material analysis to its aftermarket steering portfolio, helping maintain proper part compatibility for classic Ford Mustang steering systems and 1965 Mercury Villager applications. The arm is made from SAE 1045 steel, finished in black paint, and supplied pre-greased for service readiness.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K8106 for the same application. Delphi TA6347 also cross-references C5ZZ3352A and C5ZZ3352B.

What It Helps Correct

• Excessive steering play caused by a worn idler arm
• Loose or inconsistent steering response
• Front-end wandering linked to steering linkage wear
• Noisy or rough steering movement from worn pivot components
• Restoration needs for classic Ford Mustang steering hardware

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify fitment by year, make, and model before installation. Inspect adjacent steering linkage parts, fasteners, and mounting points for wear before replacing the idler arm. Use the included castle nut and cotter pin during installation, and confirm all steering components are torqued to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects its steering components to OE-style validation, including extreme temperature exposure below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt-spray testing. That testing supports corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency for 1964-1966 Ford Mustang and 1965 Mercury Villager steering service.
