Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Delphi TC125 ball joint requires basic suspension knowledge and appropriate tools. Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before removal of the old ball joint. Use the included mounting hardware for proper torque specifications and alignment. Since this ball joint is non-greasable, no additional lubrication is necessary during installation. Verify that the dust boot is properly seated to prevent dirt ingress.
