Delphi TC8270 Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly - Front Right Lower Forward

Delphi TC8270 Front Right Lower Forward Control Arm

Delphi TC8270 is a suspension control arm and ball joint assembly for the front right lower forward position. It is built for Tesla S and Tesla X applications that require OE-style fit and suspension geometry control.

• Pre-greased for initial service readiness
• Ball joint uses a press-in mounting design with a threaded stud
• Aluminum control arm construction with casting/forged design
• Bushings included with natural rubber (NR) material
• Mounting hardware included
• No grease fitting and non-greaseable design
• Direct replacement for front right lower forward suspension service

OE-Style Suspension Construction

Delphi applies OE engineering practices to its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio, and the TC8270 reflects that approach with dimensional and material analysis for proper fitment. The aluminum arm, press-in ball joint, and rubber bushings are specified for the front right lower forward location on 2012-2021 Tesla S and 2016-2021 Tesla X models. This part number, TC8270, is built for drivers replacing worn suspension components on Tesla S and Tesla X vehicles while maintaining factory-style suspension alignment and response.

This part cross-references 1041575-00-B and 6006664-00-C for the same application.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 2012-2021 Tesla S, front right lower forward.
• Fits 2016-2021 Tesla X, front right lower forward.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Excessive front suspension play or looseness
• Clunking or knocking from the front right lower suspension area
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn control arm or ball joint components
• Steering instability or wandering linked to worn suspension geometry parts
• Cracked or deteriorated rubber bushings

Installation Notes

Install TC8270 at the front right lower forward position only. Verify press-in ball joint service requirements, inspect adjacent suspension components, and confirm alignment after replacement. Because the assembly is pre-greased and non-greaseable, no grease fitting service is required.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests suspension components for extreme temperature exposure and salt-spray resistance, supporting durability in demanding road conditions. The brand’s OE-focused engineering and material validation help ensure consistent fit and performance for Tesla S and Tesla X applications.
