Detailed Description

Delphi TD4513W is a suspension control arm bushing for 2011-2017 Ford Explorer models in the front left rearward lower location. Delphi applies OE engineering experience to its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio, using dimensional and material analysis to match the original application as closely as possible. The bushing measures 79.5 mm in length, 97.0 mm in outside diameter, and is built with a rubber-steel-aluminum design for controlled movement and durability. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive play in the front lower control arm mounting point
• Clunking or knocking from worn suspension bushings
• Steering looseness caused by deteriorated bushing material
• Uneven tire wear related to suspension movement
• Vibration or harshness from a worn front suspension pivot

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2011-2017 Ford Explorer, front left rearward lower. This is a pressed bushing, so removal and installation typically require proper suspension service tools or a professional press setup. Inspect the control arm and surrounding hardware for wear before installation, and verify alignment after service. Mounting hardware is not included.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects this bushing to temperature testing below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, along with extended salt spray exposure, to evaluate durability under harsh conditions. The part is built using OE-focused engineering methods to support consistent aftermarket replacement quality.
