Delphi TL383 Front Left Tie Rod End

Delphi TL383 is a straight steering tie rod end assembly for the front left side. It is built as a standard replacement for Volkswagen steering systems that require precise thread fitment, stable alignment, and consistent steering response.

  • Front left steering tie rod end assembly
  • Straight design with adjustable construction
  • Male end 1 and male end 2 threads
  • Clockwise thread direction on both ends
  • Dust boot included for joint protection
  • Steel tie rod material with cataphoresis finish
  • Mounting hardware included
  • Grease fitting not included; non-greaseable design

OE-Style Steering Fitment

Delphi applies OE dimensional and material analysis to this steering component so the replacement matches the intended geometry and thread specifications. The TL383 uses a 12.0 mm end 1 thread diameter with 1.5 pitch and a 14.0 mm end 2 thread diameter with 1.5 pitch, along with a 421.3 mm stud-center-to-end length. This part cross-references TRW JRA372 for the same application.

Compatible With Volkswagen Cabrio, front left; Volkswagen Golf, front left; Volkswagen Jetta, front left; and Volkswagen Corrado, front left. Fits 1995-2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, left; 1993-2000 Volkswagen Golf, left; 1993-2000 Volkswagen Jetta, left; 1993-1995 Volkswagen Corrado, left; 1992 Volkswagen Corrado, left; and 1985-1992 Volkswagen Golf, left. Common search terms include Volkswagen Golf front left tie rod end, Volkswagen Jetta steering tie rod end assembly, and Volkswagen Cabrio left outer steering linkage replacement.

What This Part Helps Address

  • Loose or worn steering linkage at the front left wheel
  • Uneven toe settings caused by tie rod end wear
  • Steering play or delayed response from a fatigued joint
  • Boot damage that can expose the joint to contamination
  • Corrosion-related replacement needs on older Volkswagen steering components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and overall length before installation. Because this is an adjustable steering component, a professional wheel alignment is required after replacement. Confirm the vehicle uses the listed TRW design and front left position before ordering, especially on Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta, and Volkswagen Corrado applications.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects its steering parts to extreme temperature and salt-spray testing and uses dimensional and material analysis to support OE-level fit and durability. The TL383 is finished with cataphoresis protection and includes a dust boot to help protect the joint in service.
