Keep steering precise and the front suspension planted with the Delphi Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly TC1280, a front right lower forward unit that combines the arm and its integrated ball joint in one ready-to-install part. This Delphi control arm is a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of Mercedes-Benz cars, including the 2002-2009 C230, 2010-2015 C250, 2006-2015 C350, 2008-2015 C63 AMG, 2010-2014 E350, 2005-2016 SLK350 and many more — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications and engines.

  • OE-derived engineering: 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 OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
  • Quality-verified materials: Delphi control arms undergo 100% crack detection and ultrasonic flaw detection so materials match OE specifications.
  • Precision ball stud: the ball stud is machined to micron tolerances for durability and smooth joint operation.
  • Consistent build: robot welding for repeatable quality, plus anti-corrosion protection applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

The lower control arm locates the wheel and the ball joint allows the steering and suspension to pivot; signs it may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps and during turns, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear.
