What it does

Suspension arms locate the wheel and set its alignment angles. Worn suspension and steering parts show up as clunks, wandering, uneven tire wear and a vague feel; fresh parts restore control, and performance parts sharpen it.

Installation & tips

• Get a wheel alignment after replacing or adjusting arms.
• Alignment: Always after arm work.
• Bushings: Check other bushings while you are under there.
• This part affects how the vehicle stops, steers or holds the road. If you are not sure how to fit it, have it installed or checked by a qualified mechanic.
