Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC1382

Reconnect the control arm to the steering knuckle with a smooth, precise pivot using the Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC1382, a direct-fit front lower (front lower outer) replacement for the listed applications. It fits a wide range of Mercedes-Benz models, including the 2000-2006 S430, 2000-2006 S500, 2001-2014 CL600, 2003-2009 E320, 2007-2011 CLS550 and 2004-2011 SL600 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 28 applications and the correct engines. A ball joint pivots the steering knuckle to the control arm, letting the wheel steer and travel with the suspension; a worn joint may show clunking on acceleration or over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear.

• Forged construction: manufactured with high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
• Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps prevent premature failure by keeping contaminants out.
• Micron-tolerance machining: machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
• Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

Built on Delphi's OE safety technology, this part is validated against Delphi's OE performance testing — withstanding temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C plus 720 hours of salt spray — with dimensional and material analysis for OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
