Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link Kit P/N:542-542
Reconnect the front stabilizer bar to the suspension and take the slop and clunk out of your handling with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link Kit (P/N 542-178). This front stabilizer bar link kit is a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson and 2005-2010 Kia Sportage, tying the front sway bar to the suspension so the bar can resist body roll through turns.
Worn stabilizer bar links often show up as knocking or rattling over bumps and vague, loose handling when cornering; if a failed link is the cause, this kit replaces it. Front links install as a left/right pair, so replacing both sides together is recommended for balanced, even handling.
