Keep your steering and suspension tight and precise with the Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC4173, a direct-fit 2013-2014 Honda Accord ball joint that installs as the rear upper joint. This pivoting joint connects the suspension components and lets the assembly move through its travel while locating the wheel — worn joints show up as clunking, looseness, or imprecise handling.

  • Forged construction: manufactured from high-quality forgings for increased strength and smooth operation.
  • Chloroprene rubber boot: improves durability and helps prevent premature failure by keeping contaminants out.
  • Micron-tolerance machining: machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
  • Corrosion protection: anti-corrosion protection applied to each part for corrosion prevention and enhanced appearance.

Built on Delphi's OE experience, this ball joint withstands temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and is exposed to 720 hours of salt spray, with extensive dimensional and material analysis for close compatibility between the OE and aftermarket part. If a failed rear upper ball joint is the cause of your symptoms, this replaces it. Sold individually; if your vehicle uses one on each side, replacing both sides together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced results.
