Detailed Description
Delphi TC6816 is engineered as an OE-style suspension ball joint for the front right lower position. Delphi applies OE safety technology and aftermarket steering expertise to this component, with testing that includes extreme temperature exposure below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, plus 720 hours of salt spray exposure. The result is a replacement ball joint built to support consistent suspension articulation and stable front-end geometry on the listed Hyundai and Kia vehicles. If you are replacing a worn front right lower ball joint on a 2017-2023 Hyundai Elantra, 2018-2023 Hyundai Kona, 2018-2020 Hyundai Elantra GT, 2019-2023 Kia Forte, or 2021-2022 Kia Forte5, TC6816 provides a direct-fit service part reference.
What It Helps Fix
- Front-end clunking or popping over bumps
- Excessive play in the lower suspension joint
- Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering and suspension geometry
- Loose or imprecise steering feel
- Inspection failure from a damaged or worn ball joint
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the front right lower position before installation and compare the original part’s mounting style, stud taper, and bolt pattern to TC6816. The part uses a bolt-on design with included mounting bolts and nuts, and the dust boot is already supplied. Always inspect the surrounding control arm, fasteners, and alignment angles during replacement, then perform a wheel alignment after installation.
Quality Assurance
Delphi uses OE-based dimensional and material analysis to improve part-to-part compatibility with the original equipment design. TC6816 is also validated through temperature and corrosion testing to help confirm durability in demanding suspension service.
