Detailed Description
Delphi TC1626 is engineered as a front lower suspension ball joint for Dodge Dakota and Dodge Durango applications. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper compatibility between the replacement part and the original suspension geometry. The ball joint uses alloy steel SAE 5140 for the ball and carbon steel SAE 1040 for the housing, with a chloroprene rubber dust boot to help protect the joint from road contamination. This part number, TC1626, is a direct-fit style replacement for drivers servicing worn front lower suspension components on Dakota and Durango trucks and SUVs.
This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K7267 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Front-end looseness or play from a worn lower ball joint
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension
- Uneven tire wear related to suspension joint wear
- Steering wander or reduced directional stability
- Inspection failure caused by excessive ball joint movement
Installation Notes and Tips
Fits 1987-1999 Dodge Dakota, front lower. Fits 1998-1999 Dodge Durango, front lower. This is a press-in style ball joint, so proper suspension service tools and correct press alignment are important during installation. Verify stud taper, mounting bore condition, and surrounding control arm wear before assembly. The included dust boot, castle nut, cotter pin, washers, and nuts support a complete service installation where applicable.
Quality Assurance
Delphi tests steering and suspension components under extreme temperature and corrosion conditions, including exposure below -40 degrees C, above 120 degrees C, and 720 hours of salt spray. That testing supports OE-style durability for the Delphi TC1626 in front lower suspension service.
