Detailed Description
Mevotech CMS101681 is a rear lateral arm and ball joint assembly engineered for the suspension system on the Alfa Romeo Giulia and Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The aluminum body helps reduce weight, while the integrated ball joint and rubber bushing provide the connection points needed to support suspension articulation and wheel control. The pre-greased construction and included bushings simplify replacement of a worn suspension arm assembly. CMS101681 is a practical choice when the original arm shows looseness, noise, or degraded joint performance.
Common Issues It Can Address
- Suspension clunking or knocking from a worn lateral arm.
- Excessive play from a deteriorated ball joint.
- Cracked or worn rubber bushings.
- Rear suspension instability or inconsistent handling feel.
- Alignment concerns caused by worn suspension linkage components.
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rear fitment before ordering and match the vehicle application to the listed year range. Inspect adjacent suspension components during replacement, since worn links or bushings can affect overall rear suspension performance. Confirm that the threaded stud and mounting points match the original configuration before installation.
