Delphi applies its OE steering and suspension expertise to the aftermarket, testing to the extreme: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, with dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
- Forged construction: high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
- Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps prevent premature failure.
- Precision machined: machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
- Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced aesthetics.
If a worn ball joint is the cause of clunking over bumps, wandering steering, or uneven front tire wear, this replaces it. Replace ball joints in pairs where applicable and have the alignment checked afterward.
