    Quick facts

    • Part: Delphi TC1278 ball joint
    • Also called: suspension ball joint
    • Fits: 2002-2008 Mini Cooper
    • Position: Front inner lower right
    • Condition: New

    A worn suspension ball joint can show up as clunking over bumps, loose steering or uneven tire wear. These signs alone do not prove the ball joint is at fault, since a worn control arm bushing can cause them too.
