    Keep steering tight and suspension travel controlled with this Delphi ball joint, the TC1664 front upper suspension ball joint, built as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1991-1994 Ford Explorer, 1989-1997 Ford Ranger and 1989-1990 Ford Bronco II; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level fitment.

    • Forged strength: Manufactured with high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
    • Chloroprene boot: A chloroprene rubber boot improves durability and helps prevent premature failure.
    • Micron-machined: Machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
    • Corrosion protection: Anti-corrosion protection is applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

    Delphi's OE safety technology is fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, and that OE expertise carries into the aftermarket steering portfolio: parts are tested to the extreme — withstanding temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C, plus 720 hours of salt spray — while extensive dimensional and material analysis targets close compatibility between the OE and aftermarket part. This front upper ball joint locates the control arm and lets the knuckle pivot as the suspension moves. It is sold individually; if a worn front upper joint is behind steering looseness, replacing both sides together is recommended for even wear.
