FAQs

Does the TC3708 come with a pre-installed ball joint?

Yes, this Delphi control arm includes a pre-installed ball joint for a streamlined installation process.

Is this part compatible with both sides of the vehicle?

No, the TC3708 is specifically engineered for the front right lower position only.

Do I need to replace both control arms at the same time?

While not strictly required, it is best practice to replace suspension components in pairs to ensure balanced handling.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a floor jack, jack stands, a torque wrench, metric socket set, and a ball joint separator tool.

Is an alignment necessary after replacing this part?

Yes, an alignment is essential after any major suspension component replacement to prevent tire damage and unsafe handling.

Troubleshooting

Clunking noise heard during low-speed turns

Check that all mounting bolts are torqued to factory specifications and inspect the ball joint connection.

Vehicle pulling to the right after installation

This is a clear indicator that a professional wheel alignment is required to calibrate the suspension geometry.

Excessive tire wear on the inside edge

This typically suggests incorrect camber or toe settings; visit an alignment shop immediately.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets or exceeds original equipment manufacturing standards
  • Pre-installed ball joint simplifies the repair process
  • Restores factory-level handling and steering responsiveness
  • High-grade material construction for long-term reliability

Cons

  • Professional installation and specialized tools are recommended
  • Requires a wheel alignment immediately following installation

  • Does not include mounting hardware (bolts/nuts) in some kits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility is strictly limited to specific Citroën and DS models. Before beginning the installation, you must cross-reference your vehicle's VIN or OE part number with the TC3708 specifications. The installation process involves lifting the vehicle, removing the wheel, and disconnecting the existing control arm from the subframe and steering knuckle. It is highly recommended to use a torque wrench to tighten all fasteners to manufacturer-specified levels. Once installed, a professional four-wheel alignment is mandatory to ensure the vehicle tracks correctly. For maintenance, periodically inspect the ball joint dust boot for tears or leaks, as these are the primary indicators of potential premature failure.
