Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle year, model, axle configuration, and front upper position before ordering. This RK641285 control arm includes bushings, but it does not include a ball joint or mounting hardware.

Confirm all fasteners and mating surfaces are in serviceable condition before assembly.
