Delphi Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:TC1075
If a worn arm is behind loose steering or front-end clunks, the Delphi control arm and ball joint assembly (P/N: TC1494) is designed to address it: a front left lower forward unit that bolts in as a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of Mercedes-Benz models. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2000-2006 Mercedes-Benz CL500, 2001-2006 Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG and 2001-2006 Mercedes-Benz CL600 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
This assembly locates the wheel, positions the suspension geometry, and pivots the steering knuckle through an integrated ball joint.
Signs the original may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
