Detailed Description

The Delphi Professional+ line was developed for chassis applications that see frequent use and harsh road exposure. TC5796PX is designed to minimize axial deflection under load, which helps preserve alignment and handling characteristics while supporting longer suspension life. The steel body, black finish, and serviceable greaseable design make it a practical choice for Ford E-150, Ford E-250, and Ford E-350 Super Duty front upper suspension service.

This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K80196 and Mevotech Supreme MK80196 for the same application. The TC5796PX part number appears in interchange listings that include OE and aftermarket references for Ford E-Series front upper suspension use.
