Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC1601
Tighten up your steering and keep the front suspension pivoting smoothly with the Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC3717, a front upper ball joint that connects the control arm to the steering knuckle and lets the wheel move through travel and steering angles. It fits many vehicles and drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2009 Ford Fusion, 2006-2009 Mercury Milan, and 2007-2008 Lincoln MKZ — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine-level details.
Built on Delphi's OE safety technology, these parts are tested to the extreme — withstanding temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and enduring 720 hours of salt spray. If a worn ball joint is behind clunking over bumps, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, this unit replaces it. It is sold individually, and replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced handling.

What position is this ball joint?
This is the front upper ball joint, which links the upper control arm to the steering knuckle and allows the suspension to move and the wheel to steer.
What are the signs a ball joint may need replacing?
Common signs include clunking or knocking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven tire wear. Have the suspension inspected to confirm the cause before replacing.
What is the boot made of?
The Delphi ball joint uses a chloroprene rubber boot, which improves durability and helps prevent premature failure by sealing out contaminants.
Do I need to replace both sides when doing a ball joint replacement?
It's sold individually. Replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced handling and even wear.
