Keep your steering and suspension precisely linked with the DELPHI ball joint (MPN TC4240), a front lower ball joint that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2008-2015 Smart Fortwo (see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine details). It pivots the front lower control arm against the steering knuckle, allowing the suspension to travel and the wheels to steer while keeping the connection tight.
Delphi builds on the OE expertise behind millions of vehicles worldwide, testing to the extreme — parts withstand below -40°C to over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray.
- High-quality forgings: manufactured for increased strength and smooth operation.
- Chloroprene rubber boots: improve durability and help prevent premature failure.
- Micron tolerances: machined precisely for durable, smooth joint operation.
- Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced aesthetics.
Signs this part may need replacing include clunking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear — diagnose the cause before replacing, as these symptoms can have other sources. If a worn front lower ball joint is the cause, this Delphi unit replaces it.
