Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5598
Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5598
$34.99

Keep steering tight and suspension movement controlled with the Delphi ball joint TC5598, a direct-fit front lower ball joint for the 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator. This pivot connects the front lower control arm to the steering knuckle, allowing the wheel to steer and the suspension to travel while supporting the load path through the corner. If a worn joint is behind your clunking, uneven tire wear, or loose steering, this Delphi unit replaces it.

  • Forged construction: Manufactured with high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
  • Chloroprene rubber boot: Uses a chloroprene rubber boot to improve durability and help prevent premature failure.
  • Micron-tolerance machining: Machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
  • Anti-corrosion protection: Anti-corrosion protection applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

Built on Delphi's OE expertise, this aftermarket steering part is tested to the extreme — withstanding temperatures below -40 degrees C and over 120 degrees C and 720 hours of salt spray — with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility. Ball joints wear as a pair on an axle; inspect both sides and replace as needed for balanced steering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Delphi ball joint fit my Lincoln Aviator?

Yes, the TC5598 is a direct-fit front lower ball joint for the 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle and engine.

What position on the vehicle is this ball joint?

It is the front lower ball joint, connecting the front lower control arm to the steering knuckle.

What are the signs a Lincoln Aviator ball joint may need replacing?

Common signs include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause before replacing, as other suspension parts can produce similar symptoms.

What is the boot made of?

The joint uses a chloroprene rubber boot, which Delphi specifies to improve durability and help prevent premature failure.

Should I replace both ball joints at once?

Ball joints wear as a pair on the axle, so it is good practice to inspect both sides and replace them together for balanced, predictable steering.
