Delphi TC2631 Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly - Front Right Lower

OE-Style Front Right Lower Control Arm

Delphi TC2631 is a front right lower suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for select Mitsubishi Lancer models. Built as a standard replacement, it combines a stamped steel arm, pre-greased ball joint, and included bushings to restore front suspension geometry and steering response.

Compatible with 2002-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer, front right lower, this Delphi TC2631 assembly is built for direct-fit service on the specified application.

• Stamped steel construction with black finish
• Pre-greased ball joint for ready-to-install service
• Press-in ball joint mounting type
• Rubber and steel bushings included
• Mounting hardware included
• Standard replacement grade
• Not adjustable and not greaseable

Detailed Description

Delphi TC2631 is engineered for the front right lower position on 2002-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer vehicles. The stamped steel arm provides a durable OE-style structure, while the press-in ball joint design and included bushings support proper suspension articulation and alignment retention. Delphi applies dimensional and material analysis to help ensure fitment consistency between OE and aftermarket specifications, and the part is tested across extreme temperature and salt-spray exposure conditions to verify material durability.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K80373 for the same application. If you are replacing a worn Mitsubishi Lancer front suspension arm, Delphi TC2631 offers a direct replacement path for the front right lower position.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excessive play in the lower control arm or ball joint
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn suspension geometry
• Loose or unstable steering feel at the front end
• Visible bushing wear, cracking, or separation

Installation Notes and Tips

Install Delphi TC2631 only on the front right lower position listed for 2002-2007 Mitsubishi Lancer applications. Because the ball joint is press-in, proper suspension service tools are required for installation. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to verify camber and toe settings. Inspect adjacent components such as tie rods, struts, and the opposite control arm before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering and validation methods for its steering and suspension parts. This assembly is evaluated for dimensional accuracy and material compatibility, and it is exposed to temperature extremes and extended salt-spray testing to support corrosion and durability requirements in everyday driving conditions.
