Delphi Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:TC8852
Keep the rear suspension located and the ball joint tight with the Delphi Lateral Arm and Ball Joint Assembly TC8321, a rear lower forward control arm that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2014 Hyundai Santa Fe and the 2014 Kia Sorento (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications). It positions the wheel and integrates the ball joint into one serviceable unit, so a worn arm bushing or a loose, clunking ball joint can be addressed together.
Signs this arm may need replacing include clunking over the rear axle on acceleration or braking, loose steering feel, or uneven rear tire wear. If a worn arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it. Replace suspension parts in matched pairs when service information calls for it.
