Installation Notes
Install on the front left lower rearward position only for the listed Mercedes-Benz SL-Class vehicles with Active Body Control (ABC). Verify press-in bushing and threaded stud alignment before tightening fasteners, and confirm all mounting points are clean and free of damage. Because this control arm is not adjustable, final alignment should be checked after installation.
