It uses stamped steel construction for strength, a black painted finish for corrosion resistance, and a press-in ball joint design with a grooved stud. The assembly includes bushings, a dust boot, and mounting hardware, helping streamline replacement on 2014-2019 Nissan Frontier and 2014-2015 Nissan Xterra models. Delphi applies dimensional and material analysis to improve OE-to-aftermarket fit, and the part is tested across extreme temperature and salt-spray exposure conditions to verify durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK620371 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Replacement Reasons\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront-end clunking or popping over bumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven tire wear from worn suspension geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoose or wandering steering feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive play from a worn ball joint or bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisible cracking, corrosion, or damage in the lower control arm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall in the front right lower position only. Verify vehicle year, model, and suspension configuration before installation on Nissan Frontier or Nissan Xterra. Because the ball joint is press-in, proper suspension tools and alignment service are recommended after replacement. Inspect the mating components, fasteners, and steering linkage for wear before completing the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelphi builds this assembly using OE-focused engineering and validation methods, including dimensional and material checks for fit consistency.
