Application Details

This Mevotech GS901117 lateral arm is used in the rear suspension to help maintain proper wheel location and alignment geometry. It fits 2004-2009 Kia Spectra, rear forward, and fits 2005-2009 Kia Spectra5, rear forward. This part cross-references Dorman - OE Solutions 524-396 and Delphi TC5517 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear suspension looseness or instability
• Uneven tire wear related to rear alignment issues
• Noisy or worn suspension linkage at the rear forward position
• Restoration of OE ride and handling characteristics on Kia Spectra and Kia Spectra5

Installation Notes

Verify the rear forward position before ordering and compare the original arm length and mounting points to the new part. Because this arm is not adjustable and does not include a ball joint, confirm the rest of the suspension components are within specification during service. Professional alignment is recommended after installation on the vehicle.

Quality Assurance

Mevotech Original Grade GS901117 is engineered as an OE replacement suspension component for the listed Kia applications. Use the confirmed fitment data to match the part to the correct rear forward position on the vehicle.
