Detailed Description

Delphi TC1052 is a front right lower suspension control arm built from pressed steel with a stamped construction and coated finish. The arm includes bushings with a rubber and steel bushing material blend, while the ball joint mounts by press-in design and is not included. This makes it a practical OE-style replacement for maintaining proper wheel location and suspension movement on Mercedes-Benz vehicles including the C220, C280, C36 AMG, C43 AMG, C230, CLK55 AMG, SLK230, SLK320, and SLK32 AMG. Delphi applies dimensional and material analysis to support fitment consistency between OE and aftermarket applications, and the part is tested across extreme temperature and salt-spray exposure conditions to verify durability. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 102-6436 for the same application.

What This Control Arm Helps Address

• Front-end looseness or wandering caused by worn suspension pivot points
• Uneven tire wear related to incorrect front suspension geometry
• Noises from deteriorated control arm bushings
