Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5287
Keep the front left lower suspension tight and steering precise with the Delphi ball joint TC1731, a direct-fit front left lower replacement that draws on Delphi's OE steering expertise. If you need a vw Jetta ball joint, it drops in on the 2019-2025 Volkswagen Jetta, 2015-2025 Volkswagen GTI, 2018-2025 Volkswagen Tiguan, 2006-2010 Volkswagen Passat, 2015-2020 Audi A3 and many more — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
The ball joint links the control arm to the steering knuckle, letting the suspension articulate and the wheel steer. Worn joints can show up as clunking over the front suspension, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear; if a failed joint is the cause, this replaces it.
Delphi tests to the extreme for OE performance, withstanding temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and 720 hours of salt spray.
