Detailed Description

Delphi TC1501 is engineered as a standard replacement suspension ball joint for the front lower position. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper fit between the replacement part and the original suspension geometry. The ball joint assembly uses a steel housing, a tapered stud, and a protective dust boot to support consistent articulation and reduce contamination exposure. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K500034 for the same application. It is a direct-fit option for vehicles such as the Chevrolet Aveo, Chevrolet Aveo5, Pontiac G3, Pontiac G3 Wave, Pontiac Wave, Pontiac Wave5, and Suzuki Swift+.
