Give your front suspension a solid, smooth pivot point again with the Delphi TC8291, a 2009-2013 Toyota Corolla ball joint for the front lower position that is also a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2013 Toyota Matrix and 2005-2010 Scion tC. This suspension ball joint links the lower control arm to the steering knuckle, so the wheel can move with the suspension and turn with the steering.
Delphi's OE safety technology is fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, and the company applies that OE expertise to its aftermarket steering line. These parts are tested hard. They withstand temperatures below -40 °C and above 120 °C and go through 720 hours of salt-spray exposure.
- High-quality forgings: Built from forgings for added strength and smooth operation.
- Chloroprene rubber boots: Designed to improve durability and help prevent premature failure.
- Micron-tolerance machining: Machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint movement.
- Anti-corrosion protection: Applied to each part to help prevent corrosion and keep a clean appearance.
Delphi also runs extensive dimensional and material analysis, aimed at close compatibility between the OE part and its aftermarket replacement.
Signs a front lower ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, and play at the joint. If a worn ball joint is the cause, the TC8291 replaces it. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for full fitment details.
