Engineered with durable aluminum construction and pre-greased components, this assembly offers reliable suspension performance for light suspension grade applications.

• Pre-greased for immediate installation
• Aluminum control arm with casting and forged construction
• Includes rubber bushings for vibration dampening
• Machined ball joint mounting with grooved stud type
• Standard replacement grade for front left upper suspension
• Mounting hardware included for secure fitment
• Compatible with Hummer H3 and H3T models

Technical Details and Features

The Delphi TC5329 control arm assembly features a lightweight aluminum control arm constructed through a combination of casting and forging processes, ensuring strength and durability. The assembly comes pre-greased, eliminating the need for additional lubrication during installation. Rubber bushings are included to reduce noise and absorb road vibrations, enhancing ride comfort. The ball joint is machined for precise mounting and includes a grooved stud type with a thread diameter of 0.83 inches (21.0 mm) and a stud length of 2.76 inches (70.0 mm). This assembly is designed for a suspension grade type classified as light, suitable for standard driving conditions. The control arm measures approximately 14.37 inches (365.0 mm) in length and 12.0 inches (305.0 mm) in maximum width, painted white for corrosion resistance.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This suspension control arm and ball joint assembly is compatible with the following vehicles:

• Hummer H3 (front left upper position)
• Hummer H3T (front left upper position)

It is intended as a standard replacement part to restore proper suspension geometry and handling characteristics.

Common Suspension Issues Addressed

• Worn or damaged control arm bushings causing excessive play
• Ball joint wear leading to steering instability or noise
• Corroded or weakened control arm compromising suspension integrity
• Uneven tire wear due to misaligned suspension components
• Vibration and harshness from deteriorated suspension parts

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Delphi TC5329 control arm assembly requires removal of the existing front left upper control arm on Hummer H3 or H3T models. Since the assembly comes pre-greased and includes bushings and mounting hardware, no additional lubrication or parts are necessary. Ensure all mounting bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications. Alignment should be checked and adjusted after installation to maintain proper handling and tire wear.
