Key Features

• Exact-fit replacement for OE form, fit, and function
• Stamped steel control arm construction with painted black finish

Product Details

This Mevotech Original Grade control arm is engineered as a direct OE replacement for routine commuters and everyday drivers who need predictable handling and stable front suspension performance. The GS501027 uses stamped steel construction, pre-installed bushings, and a unitized ball joint to match the original suspension layout on the front left lower position. It is a practical replacement for worn components on the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana, Buick Terraza, and Saturn Relay. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
• Loose or wandering steering feel
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn control arm components
• Excessive play from deteriorated bushings or ball joint wear
• Restoring factory ride control after suspension service
