Smooth out a harsh, clunky rear ride and keep the lower control arm properly located with the Delphi Suspension Control Arm Bushing TD1478W — a Kia Optima control arm bushing designed to Delphi's OE standards. It serves the REAR LOWER, rear lower forward inner position and installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: 1999-2005 Hyundai Sonata, 2001 Hyundai XG300, 2001-2006 Kia Optima, 2001-2006 Kia Magentis, 2002-2005 Hyundai XG350, and 2004-2006 Kia Amanti. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
A worn control arm bushing can allow excess movement in the suspension, producing clunks over bumps, imprecise handling, or uneven tire wear. If a failed bushing is the cause, this replaces it and helps restore controlled suspension geometry.
