Locate the front wheel and keep steering geometry precise with the Delphi control arm and ball joint assembly, part number TC1218. This front left lower unit combines the control arm and its integrated ball joint into one bolt-in piece, locating the wheel and allowing the suspension to travel while the joint lets the knuckle pivot for steering. It's a direct-fit replacement for a long list of Mercedes-Benz models, including the 1986-1993 300E, the 1990-1993 190E, and the 1994-2002 SL500 — making it a straightforward mercedes SL500 control arm replacement. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application list.
- Machined ball studs: The ball studs are machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
- Robot-welded: The arms are robot welded for consistent quality and performance.
- Inspected to OE: Each arm undergoes 100% crack detection and ultrasonic flaw detection so materials match OE specifications.
- Corrosion protection: Anti-corrosion treatment is applied to each part, and Delphi validates parts across roughly -40°C to 120°C and 720 hours of salt spray.
Signs the assembly may need replacing include clunking over the front left corner, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Country of origin: Turkey.
