Its 248 mm length and bent design ensure proper alignment and fitment on the left outer position of the steering assembly. The steel construction of both the housing and tie rod provides strength and resistance to wear, while the black coated finish offers protection against corrosion. This tie rod end comes pre-greased, eliminating the need for initial lubrication, although it is not greaseable or equipped with a grease fitting. The bearing material, made from polyoxymethylen (POM), supports smooth articulation and reduces friction during steering movements. Both ends feature clockwise thread directions, with end 1 being male and end 2 female, and the package includes all necessary mounting hardware for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Resolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores precise steering response on compatible Mercedes-Benz models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates excessive play or looseness in the steering linkage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses uneven tire wear caused by faulty tie rod ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents steering vibrations and noise from worn components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains proper wheel alignment and vehicle handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify compatibility with your specific Mercedes-Benz model before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse included mounting hardware to ensure secure attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck thread directions carefully: both ends have clockwise threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSince the part is pre-greased and non-greaseable, no additional lubrication is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional alignment after installation is recommended to maintain steering accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelphi manufactures the TA6428 steering tie rod end to meet OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
