Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear right upper position before installation and compare the original arm, bushing layout, and ball joint orientation to the new assembly. Because this is a press-in ball joint design, proper suspension service tools and alignment procedures are recommended after replacement. Confirm fitment by year, make, model, and position before ordering GS861287.
