Delphi TC1657 Front Upper Ball Joint

Delphi TC1657 is a standard replacement suspension ball joint built for front upper applications on a wide range of classic trucks and SUVs. It combines OE-focused dimensional control with durable materials to support precise steering and suspension movement in vehicles such as the Ford Bronco, Jeep CJ7, and Chevrolet K5 Blazer.

Key Features

  • Front upper suspension ball joint for OE-style replacement service
  • Ball material: Alloy Steel SAE 5140; housing material: Carbon Steel SAE 1040
  • Press-in mounting type with tapered stud design
  • Greaseable design with grease fitting included
  • Dust boot included with chloroprene rubber construction

  • Standard suspension grade replacement
  • Part number: TC1657

Detailed Description

Delphi TC1657 is engineered for front upper suspension service where accurate fit and consistent joint movement matter. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help match the aftermarket part to the original design, while the ball joint assembly uses alloy steel and carbon steel components for strength and wear resistance. The greaseable design, dust boot, and tapered threaded stud support dependable operation in demanding suspension environments. This part number, TC1657, is a direct replacement choice for vehicles including the Dodge W150, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and GMC K2500.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products (e.g., K8194T, K8195T) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Front-end looseness or play at the upper control arm connection
  • Clunking or popping noises from worn suspension joints
  • Uneven tire wear caused by excessive suspension movement
  • Steering wander or reduced directional stability
  • Binding or rough articulation in the front suspension

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible with front upper positions on select Dodge, Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, and Jeep applications listed in the fitment data. This is a press-in ball joint, so proper removal and installation tools are recommended to avoid damage to the control arm or joint housing. Verify stud taper, thread size, and vehicle application before installation. The included grease fitting allows routine lubrication after service.
