Restore rear suspension geometry and road feel with the Mevotech GS401178 suspension control arm. This steel rear lower rearward control arm is built for the 2012-2018 Ford Focus and follows original manufacturer fit, form, and function for a direct replacement on routine commuter vehicles.

  • Exact-match OE replacement for proper fit and alignment
  • Steel control arm construction with black finish
  • Rubber bushings included for a complete service part
  • Non-adjustable design for factory-style suspension positioning
  • Built for rear lower rearward placement on Ford Focus applications

Fitment and Application

Compatible with 2012-2018 Ford Focus, rear lower rearward. The Mevotech GS401178 is a direct-fit suspension control arm for this application, making it a practical choice when replacing worn rear suspension components on a Ford Focus. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products RK643726 for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

  • Rear suspension looseness or instability
  • Clunking or knocking from worn control arm bushings
  • Uneven tire wear caused by suspension geometry issues
  • Steering or handling changes from degraded rear suspension support
  • Factory ride quality loss in daily-driven Ford Focus models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear lower rearward placement before installation and compare the original arm length and bushing orientation to the new part. Because this control arm is non-adjustable, final alignment should be checked after installation to confirm rear suspension settings are within specification. The GS401178 is designed for straightforward replacement on 2012-2018 Ford Focus rear suspension service.

Quality Assurance

Mevotech Original Grade parts are engineered as OE-matching replacements for fit, form, and function. The GS401178 is designed to restore original handling and ride characteristics for regular commuter use while maintaining the factory-style suspension layout.
