Detailed Description
Delphi TC2206 is engineered for the front lower position on 1997-1999 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1997-1999 Dodge Ram 3500 with independent front suspension. Delphi applies OE-style dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper compatibility with the original suspension geometry, while the joint is tested for temperature extremes and salt-spray exposure to support durability in demanding driving conditions. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K7269 for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Front-end looseness or play from a worn lower ball joint
- Clunking or popping noises from the front suspension
- Uneven tire wear caused by suspension joint wear
- Steering wander or reduced directional stability
- Loss of smooth suspension articulation in the front end
Installation Notes
Compatible with 1997-1999 Dodge Ram 2500, front lower, and 1997-1999 Dodge Ram 3500, front lower with independent front suspension. This is a press-in ball joint, so proper removal and installation tools are required for service. Verify stud taper, thread size, and suspension configuration before installation. Delphi TC2206 is greaseable, so follow the vehicle service schedule for lubrication after installation.
Quality Assurance
Delphi uses OE-focused engineering and validation methods for its steering and suspension portfolio. TC2206 is built with alloy steel and carbon steel components and is tested across extreme temperature and corrosion conditions to support consistent performance in service.
