Front Lower Ball Joint for 1969-1978 Oldsmobile Toronado & More - Delphi TC6498

Keep the front end tight and predictable with the Delphi ball joint TC6498, a front lower suspension ball joint that installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1969-1978 Cadillac Eldorado and 1969-1978 Oldsmobile Toronado. It pivots between the lower control arm and steering knuckle, helping support and locate the suspension while letting the wheel steer and travel over the road.

• Forged construction: manufactured from high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
• Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps prevent premature failure by keeping contaminants out.
• Micron-tolerance machining: machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
• Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

Delphi applies its OE steering and suspension expertise to the aftermarket: parts are tested to withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close compatibility with the original. If a worn ball joint is behind clunking over the road, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear, this joint replaces it. Ball joints wear as a pair, so inspect the opposite side at the same time.
