Detailed Description

Delphi TC8272 is a suspension control arm and ball joint assembly engineered for the front right upper location on the Tesla S. The stamped steel arm and integrated ball joint design support proper suspension alignment, while the included rubber bushings help isolate road vibration. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure the replacement matches the original part’s fit and function. This part cross-references Tesla OE numbers 1043966-00-B and 600893000A for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Front-end looseness or play from a worn upper control arm
• Uneven tire wear caused by suspension geometry issues
• Noises from worn bushings or ball joint wear
• Steering instability or wandering at the front right corner
• Restoring correct suspension articulation on Tesla S models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front right upper position before installation and confirm vehicle year and trim against the listed fitment. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the correct fasteners as required by the vehicle service procedure. After installation, perform a professional alignment to confirm suspension angles and steering response.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests steering and suspension components across extreme temperature ranges and salt-spray exposure to evaluate durability in demanding conditions. The brand’s OE background and fitment analysis support consistent replacement quality for Tesla S applications.
