This product is an NOS Part.
NOS items are OEM parts from Ford that have been sitting on shelves or in warehouses for years. These are often great examples of the orignal parts, but they may have scratches or other shelf wear.
However be aware that some NOS parts are "service replacement" parts. "Service replacement" parts are not exact replacements of the parts that were installed at the factory, but are what Ford considered as "good enough" and were used at Ford dealerships after the original supply of parts was exhausted.
We often leave NOS product listings on our website after they sell for reference purposes.
This listing is for a 3 bolt type upper ball joint, NOS, original Ford Service replacement upper control arm assembly. We have a very hard time keeping these in stock but we keep the listing up as it is good for comparison sake when considering the differences between reproduction and OEM. Keep in mind, service replacement parts often differ slightly from what actually came on the car. Over the years tooling is often replaced or modified and suppliers of things like fasteners often change.
Service replacement part number D5DZ-3082-C.
