ICON 07-16 GM 1500 Tubular Upper Control Arm Delta Joint Kit (Small Taper)

Starting with ICON's patented Delta Joint, this upper control arm kit brings a heavy-duty, high-angle ball joint design to your 2007-2016 GM 1500 truck. The Delta Joint is built to combine the robust nature of a traditional ball joint with the articulation capabilities of a uniball, but with added protection against the elements. Its zinc-plated housing and tough grease seal work to keep dirt and moisture out, while the metal-on-metal construction and greasable design ensure longevity and quiet operation. This unique approach offers greater angularity than a standard ball joint and more resilience than a typical uniball, making it a solid choice for daily drivers that see varied conditions.

These upper control arms are constructed from CNC-bent 1026 DOM steel tubing, offering a strong foundation that's then finished with a black semi-gloss powder coat for added strength and corrosion resistance. ICON engineers these arms with built-in caster correction, which is crucial for achieving optimal alignment specifications and achieving confident, predictable handling, especially after lifting your vehicle. When paired with a compatible 2.5-inch series coilover system, these control arms can also help increase wheel travel, leading to improved performance and a more comfortable ride on a range of GM 1500 trucks, including models like the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, and Chevrolet Tahoe.

The kit includes serviceable dual-stage bushings for the control arms themselves, ensuring they can be maintained for extended service life. ICON provides all the necessary components for installation, but it's always recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and torque specifications to ensure proper setup.
