Give the front wheel a solid, precisely located pivot point with the Delphi control arm TC5450, a control arm with ball joint for the front right lower position. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1993-2002 Saturn SC1, 1993-2002 Saturn SC2 and 1991-2002 Saturn SL, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
Delphi's OE safety technology is fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, and the company applies that OE expertise to its aftermarket steering range. Its parts are tested at temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and exposed to 720 hours of salt spray. Delphi also runs extensive dimensional and material analysis to help this aftermarket part match the OE part as closely as possible.
- Crack and flaw detection: Every Delphi control arm goes through 100% crack detection and ultrasonic flaw detection to confirm the materials match OE specifications.
- Precision ball studs: The ball studs are machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
- Robot welding: The control arms are robot-welded for consistent performance and quality.
- Anti-corrosion protection: Delphi applies anti-corrosion protection to each part to help prevent corrosion and improve its appearance.
Signs that a lower control arm or ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and play at the ball joint. Diagnose the cause before you replace the part.
