Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5290
Keep the steering tight and the suspension moving smoothly with the Delphi ball joint TC5080, a front lower suspension ball joint that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1989-1994 Nissan 240SX. Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to the aftermarket, testing to the extreme — parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray — with dimensional and material analysis for close OE compatibility.
Signs this front lower ball joint may need replacing include clunking over bumps, wandering or loose steering, and uneven front tire wear. Diagnose the cause before replacing. As a load-bearing pivot between the control arm and steering knuckle, a worn joint develops play that affects wheel control. Ball joints wear as a pair; inspect the opposite side when servicing.
