Detailed Description
Delphi TC4261 is engineered for the front lower suspension position on the 2004-2005 Dodge Durango, 2007-2009 Dodge Durango, and 2007-2009 Chrysler Aspen. It features a standard ball joint assembly with a threaded, tapered stud, a rubber dust boot, and a press-in mount for direct service replacement. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help maintain proper compatibility between the original part and the aftermarket replacement.
This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K80765 and Mevotech Supreme MK80765 for the same application. The Delphi TC4261 is a practical choice when replacing worn front lower suspension joints on Dodge Durango and Chrysler Aspen models.
What It Helps Address
- Front-end looseness or play from a worn lower ball joint
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension
- Uneven tire wear related to suspension joint wear
- Steering wander caused by excess joint movement
- Restoring proper suspension articulation at the front lower position
Installation Notes
Install as a press-in front lower ball joint and verify the counterclockwise left-thread orientation before service. Confirm the tapered stud dimensions, 12 mm wrench size, and vehicle-specific fitment before installation. Professional installation and a post-repair alignment are recommended after suspension component replacement.
Quality Assurance
Delphi tests steering and suspension components under extreme temperature and corrosion conditions, including sub-zero and high-heat exposure plus extended salt spray testing. The TC4261 is backed by Delphi’s OE-focused engineering approach for aftermarket steering and suspension parts.
