Detailed Description

Delphi TD896W suspension control arm bushing is designed for front forward locations on select compact Hyundai and Kia platforms. It uses rubber construction and press-fit installation to restore the control arm’s pivot point while helping maintain suspension geometry and ride control. This part is a direct service option for 2006-2011 Hyundai Accent, 2006-2011 Kia Rio, 2006-2011 Kia Rio5, and 2005 Kia Rio front lower forward applications.

Installation Notes and Tips

Press-fit bushings require proper removal and installation tools to avoid damaging the control arm or the new bushing. Verify the front forward position, confirm dimensions against the original part, and inspect the control arm for wear, corrosion, or deformation before installation. For best results, replace related worn suspension components as needed and perform a wheel alignment after service.

Quality Assurance
