OE-Style Front Upper Ball Joint

Delphi TC1613 is a standard replacement suspension ball joint for front upper applications on select Chevrolet and GMC trucks, vans, and SUVs. It combines OE-based dimensional analysis with material testing to support proper fit and consistent steering and suspension performance.

Key Features

  • Steel ball joint assembly with black finish
  • Front upper suspension position
  • Greaseable design with grease fitting included
  • Dust boot included with chloroprene rubber construction
  • Castle nut, cotter pin, nuts, and mounting hardware included
  • Threaded tapered stud for secure suspension connection
  • Standard replacement grade for OE-style service

Detailed Description

Delphi TC1613 is built for front upper suspension service on classic Chevrolet and GMC platforms, including Chevrolet C10, K5 Blazer, G10, G20, and GMC C1500, G1500, G2500, and Jimmy applications. It also fits select Chevrolet and GMC Suburban, van, and pickup configurations from 1973-1995. This part number, TC1613, is engineered using OE dimensional and material analysis to help maintain correct compatibility with the original suspension geometry.

Delphi subjects its steering and suspension components to temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt-spray exposure, to evaluate durability in demanding conditions. The greaseable design, dust boot, and included service hardware support a complete replacement for worn front upper ball joints on Chevrolet and GMC vehicles.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K6136 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Front-end looseness from worn upper ball joint joints
  • Clunking or popping noises during steering and suspension movement
  • Uneven tire wear related to suspension joint wear
  • Steering play caused by excess ball joint movement
  • Restoring proper suspension articulation on aging Chevrolet and GMC chassis

Installation Notes and Tips

  • Verify vehicle year, make, model, and front upper position before ordering.
  • Inspect the surrounding control arm, fasteners, and steering components during replacement.
  • Use the included cotter pin, castle nut, and mounting hardware as specified for the application.
  • After installation, check alignment and confirm smooth suspension travel.
  • Grease the joint according to service requirements if the vehicle uses a serviceable fitting.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-focused engineering and extensive testing to its aftermarket steering portfolio. TC1613 is evaluated for dimensional accuracy, material compatibility, temperature resistance, and corrosion exposure to support dependable service in front upper suspension applications.
