What It Helps Address

• Uneven tire wear caused by suspension wear
• Directional instability during braking or cornering

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front right lower position before installation. Because this assembly includes a pre-installed ball joint and bushings, it is suited for replacing a worn original arm rather than rebuilding the existing component. After installation on a Kia Sorento, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to confirm suspension angles and steering tracking.
