Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5882
Fit a new Delphi ball joint to your classic air-cooled ride and restore the pivoting link between the steering knuckle and control arm. The Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC5087 is a front lower ball joint that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1971-1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle. Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket part, with dimensional and material analysis intended to closely match the original component.
Delphi tests to the extreme for OE-level performance: these parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray. A worn ball joint may show up as clunking over the front suspension, uneven tire wear, or loose steering — if a failed joint is the cause, this replaces it.
