- Tested to withstand temperatures below -40 degrees C and over 120 degrees C, and 720 hours of salt spray
- Delphi ball joints are made from high quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation
- Chloroprene rubber boots improve durability and help prevent premature failure
- Machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation
- Anti-corrosion protection is applied to each part for corrosion prevention
A clunk over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven front tire wear can mean this ball joint is worn. A worn tie rod end or control arm bushing can also be behind those signs, so find which part it is before you buy.
The same part also fits the 2007-2017 Ford Expedition and the 2007-2017 Lincoln Navigator. Every fitment calls for two ball joints, one per side of the front axle. This listing is one joint, and the other side of that axle is normally done at the same time.
