Delphi Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:TC514
Delphi TC1486 front left lower control arm with ball joint for the 1999-2003 Saab 9-3 and other vehicles locates the front wheel and lets the suspension move. This Delphi control arm is sold as a control arm and ball joint assembly, so arm and joint come as one unit.
A clunk over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven front tire wear can mean a worn lower arm or ball joint. These signs alone do not prove this part is the problem, since a worn shock or tie rod end can feel much the same.
This control arm fits the 1999-2003 Saab 9-3 and the 1995-1998 Saab 900. This listing is one arm for the front left, the front right is a separate part, and both sides are normally replaced together. The 1999-2003 Saab 9-3 takes one for the front left.
