Delphi TC6291 Rear Left Upper Control Arm

Delphi TC6291 is a standard replacement suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for select Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Stratus applications. It combines a steel control arm with a press-in ball joint, installed bushings, and OE-focused dimensional checks for a direct-fit repair on the rear left upper position.

Detailed Description

Delphi TC6291 is built for rear suspension service where the control arm and ball joint assembly must maintain alignment and stable wheel location. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fit between the original equipment design and the aftermarket replacement. The arm is constructed from steel, uses a press-in ball joint, and includes bushings for a complete service part at the rear left upper position. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK621654 for the same application.

Compatible With 2004 Dodge Stratus, rear left upper; 2003 Chrysler Sebring, rear left upper; 2001-2003 Dodge Stratus, rear left upper; and 2001-2002 Chrysler Sebring, rear left. Delphi TC6291 is a direct-fit option for Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Stratus rear suspension repair work.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Rear suspension looseness or clunking from worn control arm bushings
• Ball joint wear that can affect rear wheel stability
• Uneven rear tire wear caused by suspension play
• Noise over bumps from deteriorated rear control arm components
• Loss of rear suspension geometry after component fatigue

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear left upper position before ordering, since fitment varies by model year and vehicle. Inspect adjacent suspension hardware, mounting points, and alignment settings during replacement. Because the ball joint is press-in and the arm is non-adjustable, proper installation and a post-repair alignment check are important for accurate suspension geometry.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects this steering and suspension component to OE-focused validation, including extreme temperature testing below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, plus 720 hours of salt-spray exposure. The brand also uses dimensional and material analysis to support OE-style compatibility for the aftermarket replacement.
