  • Steel construction with a gray finish
  • Press-in mounting design for front lower suspension use
  • Ball joint assembly included with dust boot and mounting hardware
  • Threaded, tapered stud with 16.0 mm stud thread diameter

Product Details

Delphi TC5489 is designed for front lower suspension service on 2007-2017 Ford Expedition, 2007-2017 Lincoln Navigator, and 2009-2014 Ford F-150 models. This Delphi suspension ball joint uses a press-in mounting type and a tapered threaded stud to match the original suspension geometry on the listed vehicles. The part number TC5489 is a direct-fit style replacement for drivers restoring steering and suspension integrity on these applications.

Delphi applies OE-level testing and material validation to its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio. This ball joint is evaluated across extreme temperature ranges and salt-spray exposure to help verify durability, while dimensional analysis supports compatibility between the OE and replacement part. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products (e.g., K500008) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Address

  • Front-end clunking or popping from worn lower ball joints
  • Excessive steering play or looseness in the front suspension
  • Uneven tire wear caused by suspension joint wear
  • Imprecise steering response on Expedition, Navigator, or F-150 models
  • Suspension noise during braking, turning, or road impacts

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2007-2017 Ford Expedition, front lower. Fits 2007-2017 Lincoln Navigator, front lower. Fits 2009-2014 Ford F-150, front lower. Verify press-in fitment, stud taper, and suspension orientation before installation. Because this is a press-in ball joint, proper removal and installation tools are recommended to avoid damage to the control arm or surrounding components. Confirm alignment after replacement.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering, dimensional checks, and material analysis to support consistent fit and performance in aftermarket steering and suspension parts. TC5489 is built as a standard replacement ball joint for the listed Ford and Lincoln front lower applications.
