Delphi TC8288 Suspension Control Arm - Front Right Lower

OE-Style Front Right Lower Control Arm

Delphi TC8288 is a front right lower suspension control arm built for select Kia compact models. It uses stamped steel construction with a black cataphoresis finish and included bushings to support precise suspension geometry on the road.

Compatible with 2010-2013 Kia Forte, 2010-2013 Kia Forte Koup, and 2012-2013 Kia Forte5 in the front right lower position, this Delphi control arm is engineered with OE-focused dimensional and material analysis for proper fitment. Delphi TC8288 is a direct replacement choice for drivers servicing worn front suspension components on Kia Forte applications.

Key Features

• Front right lower suspension control arm
• Stamped steel construction for OE-style strength
• Black cataphoresis finish for added corrosion resistance

Detailed Description

Delphi TC8288 is designed for the front right lower suspension position and is built from stamped steel with a black finish. The arm includes bushings and does not include a ball joint, grease fitting, or mounting hardware. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure the part matches the original suspension layout on compatible Kia Forte, Forte Koup, and Forte5 vehicles.

This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 102-6074 and MOOG Chassis Products RK642257 for the same application. For shoppers searching for a 2010-2013 Kia Forte front right lower control arm or a 2012-2013 Kia Forte5 suspension control arm, Delphi TC8288 is a direct-fit replacement option.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Excessive play caused by worn control arm bushings
• Uneven tire wear related to suspension geometry issues
• Steering pull or unstable handling from a damaged lower arm
• Visible corrosion or deformation on the original control arm

Installation Notes and Tips

Install Delphi TC8288 in the front right lower position only. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the correct hardware as needed during service. After installation, perform a professional wheel alignment to verify suspension angles and steering response.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects its steering and suspension components to extreme temperature and salt-spray testing, along with dimensional and material checks, to support OE-level fit and durability expectations for replacement service.
