Delphi TC5266 Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link - Rear

Rear Stabilizer Bar Link for OE-Style Handling

Delphi TC5266 is a rear suspension stabilizer bar link built for OE-style fit and function. It is engineered for vehicles including Subaru WRX, Subaru BRZ, Subaru Impreza, Toyota GR86, Toyota 86, Scion FR-S, and Subaru Legacy rear applications, with materials and dimensions matched for standard replacement use.

Key Features

• Steel construction with steel housing for durable suspension service
• Rear position stabilizer bar link for controlled sway bar connection
• End 1 uses a bushing and End 2 uses a ball joint for suspension articulation
• Includes bushings, dust boot, washers, and locking nuts
• Natural rubber bushing material with black bushing color
• Non-greaseable design for standard replacement applications
• Delphi TC5266 is built to OE dimensional and material standards

Detailed Description

Delphi TC5266 is a rear suspension stabilizer bar link designed to restore the connection between the sway bar and suspension assembly. The steel body, natural rubber bushings, plastic bearing material, and ball joint end support consistent rear suspension movement while helping maintain predictable handling. This part number is a direct-fit style replacement for a range of rear applications on Subaru WRX, Subaru WRX STI, Subaru BRZ, Subaru Impreza, Subaru Legacy, Toyota GR86, Toyota 86, and Scion FR-S. This part cross-references Four Seasons 20470 for the same application. Delphi TC5266 is intended for standard replacement service where OE-style dimensions and material compatibility matter.

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or rattling from the rear suspension over bumps
• Excessive sway bar play caused by worn link joints or bushings
• Loose or inconsistent rear handling response
• Uneven suspension articulation from deteriorated link components
• Noise from cracked dust boots or worn rubber bushings

Installation Notes and Tips

Install TC5266 at the rear suspension position only. Verify bolt thread size, bushing dimensions, and mounting orientation before installation. Because this link uses a bushing on one end and a ball joint on the other, inspect the sway bar and mounting points for wear before replacing the part. Confirm vehicle application by year, make, model, and rear position for Subaru Legacy, Subaru WRX, Subaru WRX STI, Subaru BRZ, Subaru Impreza, Toyota GR86, Toyota 86, and Scion FR-S.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-focused engineering and testing to its aftermarket steering and suspension parts. TC5266 is evaluated for temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and it is exposed to 720 hours of salt spray to help verify durability. Delphi also uses dimensional and material analysis to support OE-style compatibility between the original and replacement part.
