Detailed Description

Delphi TC1493 is engineered as a front right upper suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for Mercedes-Benz CL500, CL55 AMG, CL600, CL65 AMG, S350, S430, S500, S55 AMG, S600, and S65 AMG applications. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure the aftermarket part matches the original suspension geometry and mounting points. The assembly uses a casting/forged aluminum construction, neoprene rubber bushings, and a press-in ball joint layout for service on the front suspension.

This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 102-6148 and Mevotech Supreme CMS10136 for the same application. Delphi TC1493 is a direct-fit option for drivers searching for a Mercedes-Benz front right upper control arm and ball joint assembly, including Mercedes-Benz S500 front right upper control arm replacement and Mercedes-Benz CL500 suspension repair parts.

What It Helps Repair

• Front-end looseness or wandering caused by worn control arm components
• Clunking or knocking from worn bushings or ball joint wear
• Uneven tire wear related to suspension geometry issues
• Steering instability during braking or cornering
• Suspension play in the front right upper control arm location

Installation Notes and Tips

Install at the front right upper position only. Because this assembly uses a press-in ball joint and includes bushings, proper suspension support and alignment procedures are important after replacement. Verify vehicle application by year, model, and position before installation on Mercedes-Benz CL500, CL55 AMG, CL600, CL65 AMG, S350, S430, S500, S55 AMG, S600, or S65 AMG models.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE safety technology and aftermarket steering expertise to this part. The component is tested for extreme temperature exposure from below -40 degrees C to over 120 degrees C and is subjected to 720 hours of salt spray testing to evaluate corrosion resistance and durability.
