Fitment and Application Details
This suspension control arm assembly is engineered for the rear right upper suspension location on the Hyundai Veracruz and Kia Borrego. The Dorman 527-386 uses a machined ball joint mounting design, a threaded ball joint stud, and a tapered ball joint interface to match OE-style suspension geometry and support consistent handling characteristics.
This part cross-references Delphi TC5876 for the same application.
What This Part Helps Address
- Rear suspension looseness or play from a worn control arm assembly
- Clunking or knocking noises from worn bushings or ball joint wear
- Uneven rear tire wear caused by suspension geometry issues
- Directional instability or wandering at highway speeds
- Restoring rear suspension alignment control after OE component wear
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the rear right upper position before installation and compare the original part to the new assembly for mounting hole diameter, bushing layout, and ball joint interface. The assembly is not adjustable and is not greaseable, so proper torque on the mounting hardware and final alignment checks are important after installation. For best results, inspect adjacent rear suspension components for wear before completing the repair.
Quality Assurance
Dorman evaluates this control arm and ball joint assembly through an application-focused validation process to help maintain OE-style ride quality and suspension behavior. The design is intended to meet the needs of light-duty suspension service on the specified Hyundai Veracruz and Kia Borrego applications.
