Detailed Description

TC6016PX is part of Delphi Professional+, a chassis line developed for fleet and work-truck duty. Delphi states these parts are engineered to reduce axial deflection under load, which helps maintain alignment and handling while supporting longer suspension life. The design also uses serviceable components that can be regreased, making it a practical choice for Ford F-350 Super Duty, Ford F-250 Super Duty, and Ford Excursion front upper suspension service.

The ball joint assembly uses steel construction, a black finish, and a rubber dust boot. It is a standard replacement part with a press-in mount, grease fitting, and pre-greased setup. Part number TC6016PX is cross-referenced to Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Excessive play in the front upper suspension joint.
• Alignment instability caused by worn chassis components.
• Handling looseness from suspension wear.
• Grease loss or contamination at the joint area.
• Reduced service life in harsh road and weather exposure.

Installation Notes and Quality

Install as a press-in suspension ball joint for the listed Ford applications. Verify the front upper position and compare the existing joint, stud style, and mounting dimensions before service. Because this part is greaseable, routine lubrication can support continued performance after installation.
