OE-Style Suspension Replacement
Delphi TC2135 is engineered for the front left upper suspension position on Mercedes-Benz ML320, ML430, ML55 AMG, ML500, and ML350 applications. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper part-to-vehicle compatibility, while the control arm is tested for temperature extremes and salt-spray exposure to support corrosion resistance and durability in demanding conditions. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK80548 for the same application.
Common Repair Symptoms
- Front-end clunking or knocking over bumps
- Uneven tire wear from worn suspension geometry
- Loose or unstable steering feel
- Excessive play in the upper control arm or ball joint

Installation Notes
Verify the front left upper position before installation and inspect related suspension components for wear. Because the ball joint is press-in, proper service tools and alignment procedures are recommended after replacement. Mounting hardware is not included.
Quality Assurance
Delphi uses OE-focused testing and dimensional analysis to support consistent fit and performance across its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio. TC2135 is built as a standard replacement part for select Mercedes-Benz ML-Class vehicles.
