It uses steel construction, ball joint ends, and a dust boot to support consistent rear suspension connection and steering response over varied road conditions.

Key Features

• Steel housing and steel construction for durable service
• Ball joint ends on both sides for rear stabilizer bar connection
• Dust boot included to help protect the joint area
• Black bushing color with regular grade construction
• Locking nuts included; M12 x 1.50 thread size
• Standard replacement part number TC5278

Detailed Product Overview

Delphi TC5278 is engineered for the rear suspension stabilizer bar link position and is listed for 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2012-2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee with Normal Duty Suspension [SDA], Sport Suspension [SDE], or Export Tuned Suspension [SDM], 2016-2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and 2011-2015 Dodge Durango. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fit between the original and replacement part, and the component is tested across extreme temperature and salt-spray exposure conditions to verify durability in demanding environments. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. The Delphi TC5278 is a practical choice when replacing a worn rear sway bar link on Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango models.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Rear suspension clunking or rattling over bumps
• Excessive play in the stabilizer bar connection
• Uneven rear suspension response during cornering
• Worn or damaged ball joint link ends
• Noise caused by a deteriorated rear sway bar link

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm rear position and exact vehicle configuration before ordering, especially on 2012-2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee models with suspension package notes. Inspect the stabilizer bar, mounting points, and adjacent bushings for wear before installation. Torque fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification and verify that the link moves freely without binding after installation.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering, dimensional analysis, and material validation to support fit and performance for aftermarket steering and suspension parts. The component is also subjected to temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt-spray exposure, to evaluate durability in harsh conditions.
