Detailed Description
Dorman 540-170 is a suspension knuckle bushing kit developed for select Tesla Model 3 rear applications. When the original bushings wear out, the factory repair path may call for replacing the entire knuckle; this kit provides a more targeted repair by addressing the bushings alone. The result is a practical service option for restoring suspension function without replacing more components than necessary.
The kit uses rubber bushing material and standard replacement construction. It is intended for Tesla Model 3 sedan fitments from 2017 through 2023, rear. This part cross-references OE numbers 104441100F and 104441100G for the same application. Part number 540-170 is also identified by Dorman as an OE FIX solution for this repair.
What It Helps Repair

Mounting hardware is not stated as included, so verify all required service parts during repair. Use standard suspension service procedures and inspect related components for wear while the knuckle is apart.
