Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC1602

Description

Help keep your steering tight and your front suspension pivoting smoothly with the Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC1602, a front upper ball joint that connects the control arm to the steering knuckle so the wheel can steer and the suspension can travel. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1971-1985 Chevrolet Impala, 1978-1983 Chevrolet Malibu and 1970-1981 Chevrolet Camaro — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.

Forged strength: manufactured with high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps prevent premature failure.
Micron-tolerance machining: Delphi machines to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
Anti-corrosion protection: applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced aesthetics.

Backed by Delphi's OE expertise, these parts are tested to the extreme — withstanding temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and enduring 720 hours of salt spray, with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility. Worn ball joints often show up as clunking over bumps, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear; if the front upper ball joint is the cause, this replaces it.
