Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC1621
Keep steering and suspension tight with the Delphi ball joint TC498, a front left lower suspension ball joint that pivots the control arm and steering knuckle to locate the wheel and let it turn and travel. It fits the 1989-1991 Audi 80, 1989-1990 Audi 80 Quattro, 1989-1991 Audi 90 and 1989-1990 Audi 90 Quattro — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications.
Built on Delphi's OE expertise applied to their aftermarket steering portfolio, these parts are tested to withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and are exposed to 720 hours of salt spray, with dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility. If a worn ball joint is behind clunking, loose steering, or uneven tire wear, replacing it addresses that joint.
