Delphi Suspension Ball Joint P/N:TC5274
Replace a worn 1994-1998 Hyundai Sonata ball joint with the Delphi Suspension Ball Joint TC1243 — a front lower ball joint that draws on Delphi's OE expertise. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1998 Hyundai Sonata (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment). If a worn front lower joint is behind your loose steering, this Delphi ball joint replaces it.
The ball joint locates the steering knuckle to the control arm while allowing the knuckle to pivot and articulate as the wheel steers and the suspension travels. Signs it may need replacing include clunking on acceleration, deceleration or over bumps, uneven tire wear, and vague or wandering steering.
Delphi tests to the extreme for OE performance, with parts tested below -40°C and above 120°C and exposed to 720 hours of salt spray, backed by extensive dimensional and material analysis for OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
