Front Lower Ball Joint for 1993-1998 Lincoln Mark VIII & More - Delphi TC1694

Keep steering tight and suspension movement controlled with the Delphi ball joint, MPN TC1694 — a front lower suspension ball joint that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1989-1997 Ford Thunderbird, 1993-1998 Lincoln Mark VIII, and 1989-1997 Mercury Cougar (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level applications). It connects the front lower control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension travel and the wheel pivot for steering.

• OE-derived engineering: built on Delphi's OE steering expertise; parts are validated below -40°C and above 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt-spray exposure.
• Forged strength: manufactured with high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
• Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps guard against premature failure.
• Precision machining & protection: machined to micron tolerances for smooth joint operation, with anti-corrosion protection applied for corrosion prevention and appearance.

Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or popping over bumps, wandering steering, and uneven front tire wear — diagnose the cause before replacing. Sold individually; replacing both front lower joints together as a matched set is recommended for balanced steering and handling.
