- Tested for OE performance: withstands temperatures below -40 degrees C and over 120 degrees C and 720 hours of salt spray
- This Delphi ball joint is made from high quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation
- Chloroprene rubber boots improve durability and help prevent premature failure
- Machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation
- Anti-corrosion protection applied to each part
A worn suspension ball joint can show up as a clunk over bumps, wandering steering or uneven tire wear, but a tie rod end or a control arm bushing may be involved as well, so pin down which part is at fault first. Replace the front lower ball joints as a pair: this listing is a single joint, and the vehicle takes one on each side of the axle.
It is a direct-fit replacement, listed for a wide range of Ford models, including the 1990-1996 Ford F-150 and the 1999-2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty.
