Delphi TC8287 Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link - Front

OE-Style Front Stabilizer Bar Link

Delphi TC8287 is a front suspension stabilizer bar link built for Mitsubishi applications that need precise sway bar connection and consistent steering response. It uses a steel body with a dust boot and POM bearing material to support durable operation in everyday driving conditions.

Compatible with Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, Outlander PHEV, Outlander Sport, RVR, Outlander, and Lancer front suspension applications, Delphi TC8287 is engineered with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis for fitment accuracy.

Key Features

• Front suspension stabilizer bar link for OE-style replacement
• Steel construction for strength in suspension service
• Dust boot included to help protect internal components
• POM bearing material for controlled movement at the link joint
• Regular grade replacement part for front sway bar connection
• Delphi TC8287 cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 for the same application

Detailed Description

Delphi TC8287 is a front stabilizer bar link designed for Mitsubishi suspension systems where the sway bar must transfer load cleanly between the suspension and chassis. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper compatibility between the original part and the aftermarket replacement. The part is tested across extreme temperature ranges and exposed to extended salt spray conditions to evaluate durability in demanding environments. This makes it a practical choice for drivers servicing a Mitsubishi Outlander, Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, or Mitsubishi Lancer front suspension.

Part number TC8287 is built with a steel shaft, a dust boot, and POM bearing material. It does not include grease fittings, bolts, washers, or bushings, so it is a straightforward replacement for the front stabilizer link assembly where the existing hardware and mounting design are retained.

What It Helps Address

• Front-end clunking or knocking from a worn stabilizer link
• Loose or delayed sway bar response during cornering
• Excess play in the front suspension connection point
• Noise caused by worn link joints or damaged protective boots
• Uneven handling feel on Mitsubishi front suspension systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s year, model, and front position before installation. This part is listed for front use on 2007-2020 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2011-2022 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, 2011-2022 Mitsubishi RVR, 2018-2022 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, 2018-2020 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, 2008-2017 Mitsubishi Lancer, and 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross. Inspect the sway bar mounting points, adjacent bushings, and fasteners for wear before replacing the link. Because bolts and washers are not included, confirm the existing mounting hardware is serviceable prior to installation.

Quality Assurance

Delphi backs this suspension stabilizer bar link with OE-focused engineering practices used across its steering and suspension portfolio. The part is evaluated for temperature resistance below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and for corrosion exposure through 720 hours of salt spray testing to support durability expectations in real-world service.
